Beast climbing sticks by Dan Infalt - Review after 36 hunts

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

2021 UPDATE**** STICKS ARE NOW BACK TO BEING MADE IN THE USA!! PER JOE RENTMEESTER.

[@JasonW479]

So you going with these or shikar sticks for the 2021 season

[@extremeaudioPRO]

They are, I just bought a set. The price went up. but it’s a good feeling.

[@extremeaudioPRO]

I have 6 hawk heliums. My original set came with the buckles and they’re a great stick, the new ones have daisy chain straps. They are junk they kick out, don’t pull tight to the tree. bought some of these and they’re great. they have the buckle and hold tight to the tree like my original hawks, but are way lighter which makes them easier to hang as you’re climbing.

[@boelter354]

Just the review I needed bud

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Awesome 👌 I still have a set of these sticks, still love them

[@sarahtownsend394]

I love my beast sticks.

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Me too! I have the no hole mini sticks now.

[@Dirt-d]

Tethered skeletons are the best

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

not a bad stick! I have a set!

[@Dirt-d]

@@MichiganGreatOutdoors the Amsteel is boarder line terrifying but it’s held so far

@Dirt-d heck yeah, its thin!! Lol 😆

Thanks!

[@glennl9630]

They sell the rod at Beast Gear now. Best sticks hands down.

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Thanks for the tip!!

[@pamobilebowhunter4655]

Lone Wolf ALL the way. Never had a problem and always feel safe!

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

There good too. Nothing wrong with options.

Thats a heck of a line 🤣

I don't know anything about the technical stuff but love to watch what you are doing! You are very knowledgeable!

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated!

[@_DeFiNiTeLy_Not_BrAd_]

I bought the solid sticks and wish i could have afforded the ones with holes for the reason you stated. If XOP made theirs with a double step version, id probably sell mine at a loss for the simple fact that the XOP's stack better together with the cam lock feature.

[@_DeFiNiTeLy_Not_BrAd_]

Also, how did you hang the cedar tree? Id be interested in doin that in my barn so i can shoot at night from a elevated position.

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

It's secured in 3 positions, framed in bottom a ratchet strap in the middle and a 1/2 bolt up top.

100 bucks for a single stick made in China is all I needed to hear . Fuck that .

There made in the USA now.

@@MichiganGreatOutdoors good news there!

[@dewaynenunley569]

The wholes making whistling sounds in the wind got me, I don’t think that you have to worry about that, unless you are shooting them out of your bow lol. But I have got to get these sticks and the stand, my setup is wearing me out, and is super slow.

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Ive never experienced a whistling sound with these sticks but I also sold these and got some of the no holes version. I like those better anyway.

[@dewaynenunley569]

@@MichiganGreatOutdoors I may end up getting some of the novix stuff, I like Dan but I just can’t talk myself into spending a thousand dollars on a stand and some sticks, but I’ve definitely got to do something different.

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Yeah, it really is fricken pricy man! Id check out Novix!

[@dwaynelevandowski5506]

Mr. Plainview commented 2 months ago they cost $80 After watching your review I just checked and they are now pre-order for $95 talk about sticker shock. Plus another $11 for the cable aider. And I'm still thinking about getting some to try. Wow I do fully enjoy your videos, keep up the good work......

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Dang! 95$ now??? Thats crazy.... they are nice sticks, unfortunately due to my weight I bent them all. Had them replaced for free (warranty) then bent 2 more and got rid of them. I traded the 4 good ones for LWCG minis. So if your a lighter fellow they should be fine! I weight 260lbs fyi.....

[@wetfoot7782]

Agreed! Been mobile hunting since 1989. These are hands down the best stick on the market. My lone wolf sticks needed a rebuild after just 2 seasons. Stealth stripping works great, buckles too. I just strap mine together with an old safety harness strap.

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

I agree, nothing feels as solid as these on a tree. Ive tried them all now besides lwcg. Thanks for watching!

[@ToddTheGunGuy]

Great review brother and love the tree in the batn😂 Give you guys credit cuz I am getting too old for steps. Used to do all that but now ground blinds and heavy ladders. Keep em coming🤙

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

I love mobile hunting, used to do it for years when I was younger and then just got in the mode of hunting the same tree all the time. These sticks allow you to get a mile back and setup! Thanks for watching! I got your new one in my list for tonight!!

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Thanks man! Appreciate the comment!

[@nickframe1508]

I completely agree with feeling confident being really important! I'm with you, I feel uneasy with lone wolf sticks. Gonna give these a try next season, thanks.

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Exactly!! Love the stability of the sticks!

[@foxhilloutdoors2134]

Safety should be everyone's first thought when climbing, so if they give you peace of mind, they're worth it. Love the idea of the multiple length rods you have depending on your needs. Great review buddy!

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Thanks man, they do feel really safe! Safety #1 rule!

For whatever reason people think everything from China is cheap in quality. Not true.

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

I agree with that, however all of my beast sticks have bent so I had to move on to something that doesnt bend.

[@jamesrobinson4680]

I'm going to check into these products i no longer hunt but I want to shoot videos on a mobile stand of deer in the public lands

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

That might be an expensive setup for that but if money is no option then go for it!

[@BudjetBassin]

Great video my friend 👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Thank you very much! I appreciate it!

[@Bearsfan871]

I like the idea you had for the rod, what is it just a rod with threads? if you can show me what it is i would like to do same thing! thanks!

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Yeah its a threaded rod I got from Home depot. I can make a video for guys cause they keep asking for one!

[@Re-liner_outdoors]

What do you weigh and what stand are you using? I’m a bigger fella. 275lbs. I want to try a lwcg but not sure if they are good for a big fella.

Stealth strips will solve your stacking issues as well as making them quieter. You won't need that threaded rod anymore

Yeah it sure did.....

[@barryph1]

Great video bud, just got my sticks back in June from my order last Dec. I’ve only played around climbing a couple times so far. I did stealth strip mine which makes them quieter. I’m using a camera strap but like the threaded rod idea. Do you have any suggestions for getting the sticks up the tree? Are you saddle hunting with them? This is the main thing I haven’t figured out yet!

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

I use tree stands. I usually hang the first 2 from the ground then just carry one up as I climb and then attach a rope to the last one and pull it up. Im playing with bungee cord and small carabiners now.

[@matthewhickel6394]

Great review! I was wondering if the main tube has square or rounded outer corners? and whats the wall thickness? Also do you use aiders? thanks!

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Its square, square edges. Wall thickness not sure, I didnt use aiders last year but just picked some up for this season.

[@kawi4ev]

How high are you getting with 4 beast sticks ?

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

15 to 16 ft depending on spacing. I run 18" cable aiders now which gets me up to 18-20 ish.

@@MichiganGreatOutdoors how many inches is your spacing from stick to stick ?

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

@@kawi4ev usually 20ish

[@kawi4ev]

@@MichiganGreatOutdoors I see! I’m trying to decide which beast sticks to get.. currently just have the original 32inch lonewolfs and am wondering if the 20 inch beast sticks will be better due to less sticking out off my beast stand and catching brush..

@@kawi4ev Do the 20 inch minis still bolt into the beast stand? I have the 24" sticks not the minis. I also do not have a beast stand.

I want to rephrase this. I cant understand the price of these or any "premium" climbing sticks. For what they do and what they charge I think their are better places to point that money.

I've hunted climbers and ladder stands my whole life. But I'm now that I'm into archery and public land hunts what is a good comfortable run and gun setup for someone trying to get comfortable with a setup like this im 5"11 200-210 thanks ive got my sticks picked out already

[@MichiganGreatOutdoors]

Its all about how much u wanna spend really. Id highly recommend starting in the mid grade price range. Start with the lone wolf assault 2 and some lone wolf sticks for right around $400 for stand and sticks, if you fall in love with hunting like this you can upgrade later.
