    Excellent video sir, I have seen a lot of videos on climbing stand stuff, I would say by far this is the best one for the beginner to watch and use especially with the ol man stands, nicely done, keep up the great work and have a blessed week.

    I recently purchased (used) a Carbon Air Elite climber of similar design. It is AMAZINGLY light, so light that I have to be careful not to kick the front by accident, or it will slip down the tree like you illustrated with the CTS. I am still getting used climbing with it, but I've never had a climber that felt like it was a natural extension of me. Once it is set up, it is comfortable enough to sleep in. I love the net seat.

    Great video Toby. Had 2 O'l Man steel climbers that I used for nearly 20 years before they were stolen off our hunting lease. Loved them, although my hunting buddies commented on their weight until they had a chance to hunt out of them. Just purchased an O'l Man Alumalite CTS, can't wait to use it. Really liked the double safety straps from climber to platform. Appreciate your time in producing this very informative video.

    I been using a old man grand version sense 1997 if you’re a bow hunter it’s the best advantage you can get if you take your time and learn how to use it it’s safe quite quick and simple to use. My stand wait is 19 pound soaking wet. Plus it makes a awesome back pack to carry your gear.

    This lightweight tubing idea with arms that fold up, your D & T guy's would have to put together a tree climb that doubles as a game tote, a 20" aluminum wheel and a quick release axil. One man could wheel out his white tail buck in one go. I love what you blokes do in the states, we need these products in Oz.Cheers.

  • @markellingotn4094
    @markellingotn4094 9 місяців тому

    Excellent tutorial… hunted an ole’ man abt 15 years before being transferred to city. If you practice you can enter and leave without a sound. If memory serves me tape was applied to several contact points when folded to reduce noise. While climbing and descending trees with effort and practice the sound will be very similar to a raccoon. Several issues happened over the years but safety devices built into the ole’ man system allowed easy recovery. The stand embraces you with the swing arms if you slouch into the seat. I have taken many naps in this tree stand. I will be buying an ole’ man to replace the city recommended summit. The summit has been used twice and failed me both times, make a ton of noise and very cumbersome… ugh!!!

    up at my grandparents i would like to use one of these but the probleme is there arnt any trees that go upt to15-20 feet with out branches up to that height so every 3 feet i would have to undo it and set it up above those branches so i was wondering would you recomend a hangon stand or a ladder stand?

    I own 3 Ol'man stands 2 of the old green style . I love them up can climb anything with it.
    I bought on of these last year the teeth will not bite the tree and the cables have a rubber coating
    when climbing they hand the tree and do not want to slid up the tree. I would not have another one if they gave it to me.

    Great detailed climbing explanation! You can tell you know your stuff regarding climbing stands (other than not clipping in to your harness but still).
    And I never realized to step through the front of the net seat and use it to sit and climb! Duh! I have a Muddy Stalker with the same seat. I was doing it by suspending my body weight on locked arms (think top position of a dip when you workout). Luckily I'm in shape but that way is obviously easier lol. Thanks

      @DravesArchery  10 років тому +2

      It was just as a safety precaution & we encourage everyone to wear a safety harness! This video can just easily demonstrate how light-weight the harness is & it won't get in your way when using a climbing treestand.

The new ones have been garbage since the law suit took Ol' Man out, 10 to 1 a liberal judge, just like the McDonald's coffee law suit. Let me know if you want the cts alumalite. $350 stand for $100

    New to the climber world and put it to use this hunting season. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxlQ7TDIrnnSXXbRgFFaxqwullRJJIuYAs I felt safe while climbing up and down a tree. It did take some time getting used to climbing and descending the tree. Once I figured it out I was comfortable going in climbing a tree knowing I was going to be up a tree quickly and most importantly quite not scaring every deer out of my area. I am 6’2” and 240 lbs, fit and comfort were great. I bow hunt and found no issues hunting from it. It is a little bulky to carry in and out of the woods vs some of the smaller open front climbers but I thought it was worth the bulk/weight due to ease of climbing (using the rail to sit on) and comfort for long sits.

  • @dhusmc86
    @dhusmc86 7 років тому +2

    Just seems a little bulky and to many moving parts! Couldnt imagine setting this up in the dark trying to find a whole for a pin only to find that the tree has tapered too much on the way up and having to reset it. I'll stick with my 'Lonewolf'. 1 strap and climb!

    IMO you should be connected to the tree at all times. Every year I read about someone falling from a tree and getting seriously hurt or killed. It really doesn’t take much more time or effort to stay tied in. No reason not to.

    Ok I bought this stand after using the original steel ol man stand. I see why you're wearing those sock shoes because it's hell trying to slide your hunting boot in. The original ol man stand has a strap you can pull up on to slide your feet in. Second, the straps you have are not put on correctly. You shouldn't have to slide the safety strap up to buckle it. It should be laced into the slot. People that have the original stand know what I'm talking about. I'm really not happy with this new stand. They should of copied the old style and just made it aluminun
