But you can't use it on public land in most places.

@@BradfordStokes it doesn’t hurt the trees. Those laws are only to protect the valuable hardwoods for logging

@@mjh1783 figures it’s about money. Here’s me thinking they care about the tree. But honestly I follow every law but that one. I’ve hunted public my whole life and screw my pack hook and bow hook. I could see if you was using screw in tree stand pegs all the way up now your asking for it. But two little holes in the top of a tree. Yep don’t care

Yea that was a "cmon really" moment for me. And imo. Lwcg set up still looks superior...but we all have different opinions, and thats ok

Yea I’m a beast and lone wolf fan and honestly if I was going to spend the money I would probably get a lone wolf .75. I have the alpha and lone wolf sticks and it’s good enough for me.

@@garrettstraffon608 like you I don't choose sides. I like everyone's gear and try it all. If this company could've brought out this stand $100 cheaper it would've dominated sales.

@@jhoffman81 I said I’m a fan of both. But honestly the new .75 looks really nice before that I was beast stand all the way

@@garrettstraffon608 I can see how you read that wrong. I was agreeing with you, punctuation is important in text lol. I've owned beast stuff, visit the forum, try everything from everyone. Only one that I'm not thrilled with is Tethrd due to their CS.

Yeah? So? There are lots of trees in the woods.

Seriously this or climate change is my lowest priority on earth

Getting a bit ridiculous

Nobody is making you buy one. There are a ton of cheap stands out there. It’s nice to have to options. 🤷🏻‍♂️

They are charging too much for gas, milk and bread.

@@ikswodolg2 They've made it to where you get EXACTLY what you pay for!

It is expensive. But when you buy it once you have it for a long time. Just buy a couple good stand. Summit viper, one lone wolf sticks and stand. Don’t fall into the newest stand out. Use what you have already invested into and hunt. But you have to buy at least one good stand. And get Walmart camo to be honest. Just have to weigh out the expensive investments and figure out what you can go cheap with

When you're rich sure!

🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣🤣🤣

What do u mean shit even xop?

The newest hang on stands are 200-300. Id rather pay for a $600 stand I can take anywhere and sit anywhere that weighs 1/3 of any other stand and is build with quality over these box store stands that has parts that squeak and move

Oh, reading that made it seem like the moral of the story was, f*cking pay attention!🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

I wouldn't use one of those gay things if I was even being paid to.

@@casanovafrankenstein8875 it was brutal he was with a doe and she didn't see me so he just stood there until about the time I was drawing back

LWCG- Is that a new gay identifier?

I'm glad I purchased an Alpha 2 for $250 at Scheels about a year ago before they went up to $350! I have a XoP vanish evolution that is about the size of the Assault 2 platform and for the $200 I paid. It blows all these 500 dollar stands out of the water...if the XoP is too heavy for you, which it's not , it's light AF. Then you need to push ups & sit ups come deer season. These cast aluminum stands are so easy to hang. I also got Lone wolf climbing sticks for $200. They are nice but now your only option is the Novix ones now, and now they charge like $250 for the sticks. I picked up 3 beast mini sticks with the double steps and wow they are nice. I like to use a couple of lone wolf single steps at the bottom because theynare longer and more cumbersome. Then I'll bring beast minis up the tree with me towards the top so I have double a step to stand on while hanging the stand. Otherwise if you have one foot on one step and the other below it with the normal single step sticks. If anyone is reading this. I would get like 4 or 5 beast mini sticks and get the non -hole version and save some money. I think his Beast stand is pretty steep though. $650 for a stand is crazy high.. I got a lot of tree stand equipment for the price of 650. Alpha 2 =$250, XoP vanish evolution =$200, LW climbing sticks=$200. I got 2 cast aluminum stands and climbing sticks for the same price of one stand. My beast minis were and still are on sale for $70 a piece right now. The no-hole version.. those seem like a deal now compared to novix mini double steps for 4 for $250. Really like the beast sticks..when you are at the top of the tree, you can stand on the bottom edge of the double step and kind of slide your knees in front of the top double edge and it kind of locks you close the tree..I see why they designed them the way they did. Love them

It looks like my foot would slide right through the platform too
