    This video is extremely helpful. I just bought a climbing stick and stand combo and the first time setting it up was difficult trying to figure out how to place everything but you gave me some good tips to try. Thank you

    This video was great. I got my first tree stand for xmas, a muddy boss xl. I’m now going to look into a bracket for it. It would be extremely helpful to have something holding it in place so i can strap it down. Thanks again!

    Great video. Almost my exact method.
    I like your loops for carrying sticks on your side better. I’ll use that.
    My treestand modern Hawk Helium. I put a small loop paracord near seat. When I get up I screw in a little hook. Pull stand up and hang on hook with the cord. Let’s me then put the 2 straps to tree very easy.
    Look forward to more of your videos.

    I found this helpful. When I bought my Novix Echo I was looking for a video like this for ideas. This is not for the faint of heart but it is doable with practice. I’m 50 years old. Even though his hang on is different than mine this video is still applicable. My goal is to use this setup and get a deer with archery on public land. I already have a buck and doe using ladder stands on private property which feels like cheating compared to a hang on! 😂

    That is a lot of gear but you’re totally dialed in with it. I appreciate the in depth explanation. I’m still using a traditional climber but would love to be more versatile in tree selection. Thanks for the tips.

    Great Video. As far as getting down. Are you using the lineman’s rope to get back down? How do you stay connected in between disconnecting and when putting the lineman’s rope back on? Hope this makes sense.

    • @BowOnlyOutdoors
      @BowOnlyOutdoors  Рік тому +2

      Yes I do the same thing as getting on the stand in reverse order. Put the bottom rope around the tree, disconnect the top rope, and climb down to the sticks

  • @corydippery9198
    @corydippery9198 4 місяці тому +1

    Definitely should be hooking up to your lifeline before stepping into the stand but I am guilty of doing it that way sometimes when I am in a hurry.

    • @edwardhovitz1753
      @edwardhovitz1753 2 місяці тому

      I get it that it looks scary, but he has his lineman rope connected whole time before and after stepping on. Too much redundant safety stuff and things just ain’t gonna get done.

  • @MollyDogg1234

    How do you carry it all in ? Carry the stand and bow and have the pack on back. Or do you put your stand on your pack

    • @BowOnlyOutdoors

      Carry the stand in my hand, bow in the other, and the sticks strapped to my pack 👍🏻

    Why are you not using carabiners for all this? It would be a lot easier to unclouded rather than untie.

  • @Dadoutdoors24
    @Dadoutdoors24 3 місяці тому

    Ill be honest, i think noise l (to a certain degree) is overblown. I was setting up a hang on for the very first time ever last weekend, so you can imagine how loud it was despite my best efforts. Like an idiot, i even dropped my bow hanger from up there. Had a doe and a buck walk within 40 yards no more than 10 minutes after I got settled in. As long as you're not throwing a party ratchet straps won't send them running in the other direction. I was even on public land so they're aware of hunters out there

    The muddy pro sticks are the best sticks you can buy for the money. I pretty much have the same set up as you. I will always use a hang on stand. The saddle thing aint for me!

  • @MrDuramaximus
    @MrDuramaximus Місяць тому

    Why not just use a climbing tree stand?

    • @BowOnlyOutdoors
      @BowOnlyOutdoors  Місяць тому

      Most of the trees I hang a stand in have many limbs and are odd shaped so a hang-on stand works better for me from a flexibility standpoint

    • @MrDuramaximus
      @MrDuramaximus Місяць тому

      I understand. I've never used a hang on stand but after watching your video, I might be experimenting with one.

  • @jimlahey3919
    @jimlahey3919 Рік тому +1

    Those muddy stands were way too heavy for a hang and hunt.

  • @OregonGrown1991
    @OregonGrown1991 2 місяці тому

    Honestly it seems much easier to just buy one of those light weight collapsible ladders and strap it to your pack instead of all that crazy climbing and acrobatics to get things situated. Then when you're done for the day, leave your stand and just carry out your ladder and next time you only have half the work to do. And nobody can mess with your stuff cause there's no way up to it

    • @gavinbowman8234
      @gavinbowman8234 2 місяці тому +1

      Curious how much noise those collapsible ladders are? I have heard they can be very squeaky after a season or two?

    Great info here on getting up and down the tree safely. One thing you said that I do not agree with is sometimes you grab a tree limb to get into your stand. This I would have to respectfully disagree with. Never use a tree limb when climbing a tree it’s one of the first rules for tree stand safety. I understand that you like your mobile set up and that's great but why do a review on products that are no longer available? Run and gun / mobile set ups have come a long way and are much lighter than the old muddy gear. A good run and gun set up is not cheap but you only need to buy one set and it will last you a lifetime. Personally I have went to a saddle for my run and gun set up and I love it! When it comes to cutting down on weight a saddle set up is hard to beat.

    • @Canadaman4403
      @Canadaman4403 Рік тому +2

      I just ordered my first saddle set up I can’t wait to pull down my 20 or so fixed tree stands. I have enough metal in the bush to build a tank and it’s so much effort to get it up the deer patterns changing year to year, stands getting stolen, looking forward to the lightweight run and gun set up I hope it works for me! Saddle Hunt in here in Alberta Canada is unheard of not a hunting store within sight selling it everything I bought had to come out of the US churching churching churching bring cash
