If you’ve watched the second part of the video you’ll see I provide a demonstration of how it is used. With that you should be able to determine if it’s a good fit for you. If you haven’t used a climber before you may want to try one before taking the plunge. It’s not for everybody, this one in particular. Good luck!

Thanks for the comment! From my experience, the issue with trees that are small (and too large) is that too few teeth on the climber actually engage the tree. For me it didn’t seem to be a tightness issue. But I’ve seen others do what you are suggesting to allow the traction belt to travel through the channel without interference. Be safe this year!

Just had a LW assault hand climber given to me the bar you were talking about moving freely mines still stiff . It looked like it sat in a tree one time then in the bed of a truck. All the manufacturer paint was gone. Hit it with an OD green and gonna give it some black stripes or grey. Anyway. My buddy’s dad told me a few years ago how much they were. Never got one nor would I spend the money on it. Ended up buying a brand new hawk ultra lite in 2019 and it’s a badass solid stand. I just feel like the weight difference of the lw is going to make a big difference. Plus me hawk had something that was squeaky when walking. Still love that hawk tho.

I think the issue you're having with the bushing not getting up into the recess, is that it's binding up on the traction belt which is inside that tube. It would explain why it goes back and forth from one bushing to the other. Try pulling the belt and see if they both seat into the recess. Great video.
@northofdetroitoutdoors74042 жыл бұрын
I figured out the problem several months after the video was made. The bushing assembly came dislodged from what seems to be an internal slot inside the tubular frame. I was able to push back into place with a small screwdriver. No problems since. It was only happening on the one side, not both. I was obviously still getting used to it and thought it was both sides. My bad! Thanks for the comment.

If you weigh over 210lbs and are used to putting on 10lbs in the winter, I wouldn’t invest in or hunt out of a lone wolf climber. I owned one for 7 years. The top half collapsed on me, more then once, while I was hunting. The stand is rated for 250. More like 235! I’m talking body weight, gear ect... Before I put on a little weight, I shot quite a few 3.5 year olds from it. I ended up giving it away to a neighbor friend that weighed 25lbs less than me. The Summit Viper SD is super comfy and safe but LOAD and BULKY! So if your a bigger guy like me you might want to hunt from the ground or hang in hunt/saddle. The viper is nice for private land as a fixed stand because it makes for a great afternoon nap or public if you put it out ahead of time, but don’t plan on blazing any trails

Thanks for reaching out. I’ve had no major trouble with platform space or climbing with the two pair of winter boots that I use.

I’d imagine that if you have boots that are significantly oversized in the toe area it may interfere when you attempt to put you feet under the bracket to climb.

Great review and well presented. On the LW YT channel, they say to use plumbers grease for the platform channels. My climber is a couple years old and was hard to slide like you mentioned. The grease made a huge difference and is thick enough to last a season. Picked up a small tube from Home Depot. Love the stand. It helped me kill a solid public land buck in IL this year. It packs down low, light weight and quite. Another good addition is the third hand stabilizer straps. I was hesitant but they seem to hold better than the stock straps once you’re at height to lock the stand down.

Thanks! It is a small platform and but I’ve used it enough to know how to maneuver myself into any position without problem, even if I have to shoot behind the tree.

I chose to sacrifice extra room for the weight savings.

Thanks for the comment! Much appreciated! Yes, it is very quiet. I’ve also climbed trees only to have deer under my stand within minutes of getting settled. The ability to get up a tree quickly and quietly with this climber can’t be overstated!

Both are great schools. I went to neither so I’m not super passionate about either one. I root for both. but when they match up I choose based on which players I support most in a particular year.
