My advice when building your own treestands if possible make a very large seat and make it extra close to the platform. Much more confortable if your knee is past 90 degrees and having a full seat that offers more then your bum is great and not something you get with factory treestands. IMO no seat ...

That's a good point and we always do wear our harnesses. Our stands are way overbuilt and light at 17 lbs. Homemade can be better the store bought but am just as confortable in these as a store bought. I am not very keen on the woods built stands though JMO. But then again we all built tree houses w...

Good debate, what do you guys think about these stands that Rookie and I made? We swaped out that chain for 1500 lb rated clothes line wire. Welds and botls hold it together. http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b99/Billert2/Back.jpg http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b99/Billert2/Assembled.jpg http://i...

Thanks Lonewolf....live and learn LOL At the time I didn't think he was that big and I'm sticking to that :) I was holding out for my biggest deer ever for my mount so I'm guess in the 170-180's! I may still mount him yet. I'll have to see, no rush to decide now. Just dont really have to space to pu...

Thanks and all is true. Ya can be naked and take deer...brrr. But I think the point is to be prepared for the biggest/smartest hog of a deer where everyone else has failed. Getting that deer might mean you're on your "A" game. What does the "A" game entail....

Here is a response from Atsko: U-V-Killer continues to work until it is worn away, washed away, or covered with another dose of brighteners. It is very durable but you should check it once a year with a 350 BLB Black Light. U-V-Killer works by forming a coating that intercepts the UV energy so it ca...

I re-e-mailed but have not received a response (as I wanted a direct guarantee). If I dont get one in a few days, I'll send another. I'm okay with every other camo having UV in them, but I want my next jacket to last a while.
