Been using an API for as long as I can remember, but my current stand is aging and I feel like I should consider a new one. I don't like a Summit, so give me some names of other brands you like....

Summit is the closest I have found to an API. I did not like the old summits but this newer one I have is nice. What dont you like about Summit?

I want to try a Tree Walker.
But, every time one gets posted in the classifieds on here it’s up north and sells quickly.

I doubt I’ll ever buy another stand , but Buckshot makes a climber with a rigid bar design and if I were going to buy another stand , that’s what i would buy.

I like the way the ole man climbs the best. I have two APIs and its awkward climbing them to me. If the ole man had a little better seat, it would be #1 hands down

Lone wolf and treewalker for me. Treewalker is most comfortable and solid in my opinion. Sux treewalker went out of business

Tree walker. I thought API ,or at least Paul Meeks , was back in business. I love my API and treewalker both.

Don’t remember. Just remember it was heavy, awkward, and not quiet

I like my older Lone Wolf products, but now the company is having some patent rights drama going on. Not sure what the deal is. You can still buy sit-n-climbs from on-line stores, but google the company and it seems they only advertise loc-ons in some line called D'Aquisto and way over-priced. Even the logo has changed. Novix advertises a loc-on very similar to the alpha II loc-on (looks like they removed the wolf head shaped bow-holder). But I see where no sit-n-climbs are being continued.

I have the xop version of a lone wolf. Not comfortable for a longer sit. What about a porta climb?
