Guide Gear Hang-on Tree Stand, Equipment for Deer, Bow Hunting, 24” x 29.5”

I have sat and hunted many different hang on tree stands. this tree stand is great if you want the simple hang on tree stand (nothing fancy about it), it has a larger platform considering the price. I am not affraid of climbing out on a limb and sitting on uncomfortable stands, even scary ones, I have done it to shoot the big buck. This stand is not that stand, it is sturdy and i feel secure considering I have room to move my feet and stand on the platform and wiggle to make a shot without the harness if need-be. This stand makes you feel secure for what it is. I weigh 200 lbs. I am a firm believe in you get what you pay for. This stand is a great deal for what you will use it for and that is why i rate it a 5. A 5 rating for what it is, yes it is not your luxury stand but for its purpose and design its great. It comes with two ratchet straps, the ratchet straps are not the easist to use when attaching it to the tree so i use one of theres and a regular ratchet I have to buy to solve this issue.
