Summit TreestandsViper SD Climbing Treestand

It is a good treestand - lightweight and very, very comfortable to sit in. There are good YouTube videos on how to use it. I use it for hunting sambar deer in Australia. It is a good idea to quieten it a bit before carrying it if you don't want to risk spooking deer. I removed the dangling bits on the zips, and I strap the tree strap around both frames to stop them clanging. Biggest trivial safety risk is being a bit silly and not removing your finger from the metal cord-length adjuster when unfastening it from the tree. This type of treestand has its limitations - the tree cannot have branches and must be from 8" to perhaps 24". On the plus side, it is easily transportable.

This is a very comfortable stand.

This is by far the best climber I have ever owned. It is quiet and easy to pack out and climb with. I sat in the tree for 11 hours straight with pure comfort. It is safe and reliable. Buy with confidence.

Looks great, solid, rugged and easy to use. I’m almost 70 so something in the 16 pound range would be ideal. I shortened my treks into the woods making the sacrifice for comfort and stability!

Love this tree stand, it’s super light, easy to climb, and comfortable. Carried it in to my spot over two miles and only thing I wish it had was a waist belt to take a little weight off your shoulders for when you have a Long track into your stand. But I can add that as well.All and all best tree stand I’ve owned
