How stable does it feel when sitting up there? Do you think it could shift left or right while in it?

I don't think so. It might a little because it's the best spot I could find wit the biggest and best vantage point but it's a smaller tree. The wind was blowing and I was swaying.

Nothing a little Kentucky windage won't cure though. :lol:

Joe, would you please post up the pic of your brushed in stand again? I went to look for it but it wasn't there. Maybe you deleted it.

Put it on it's face with the legs about 6 feet from the tree. Pick up the basket and start walking forward while making sure that the legs dig in. Then just walk it up. I actually had to take it back down, place the straps on that I forgot and put it back up.

Looks like it's big enough to be comfortable. I love my 2-man ladder stand when I'm the only one in it. :lol: :lol:

Looks great, please don't forget the safety harnesses! Looks like the Little Big 1 is going to dig it pretty much too!
Good Luck, have fun! :wink:

They are super comfortable with one person. I could lay down on the bench and sleep.

No doubt. We'll all be strapped in. Gotta find her a kids harness if anyone has one.
