2-Person Treestand Back Rest Question

[tammie]

i bought two outdoor chaise lounge cushions (they were on clearance sale)have ties on both sides.one to sit on and one for backrest.silly me left the old cushions in stand and squirrels ate them.

That's how I attached mine also with zip ties . I also cut a piece of rubber matt to fit the mesh bottom of the stand . If you have to cock your bow in the stand its much quieter and isn't grinding your stirrup against the metal bottom .

Mike, that's an ingenious idea! Do you know where I could get one cheap?

Gene and Stephen, I'll definitely keep an eye on the zip ties. I'll most certainly be checking the entire stands stability yearly before I use it.

Tammie, I like the idea of the cushions but wouldn't you have to remove them daily?

I cut my piece of mat from a Huge roll we had at work , If I were you I would measure the floor of the stand and buy a cheap rubber rug and cut it to fit .
