I've never hunted out of a climber or a lock on stand. I've hunted out of ladder stands, the ground and box stands. My dad has built a hunting "condo" that we "hunt" out of some too. We put back up an old box stand that someone had left on the property that he bought. I'll have to post some pictures of my dad's stand when i get a chance. Todd's seen it, I think it's pretty impressive. :eek:
