This was one of the best videos for me...a new hunter... with the same stand. Very well done. Wish I could but this guy a case of beer. Thanks!

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Jim, thanks for the kind words! Hook me up and hit subscribe, if you could. Best of the luck with your Summit!

[@jimburchfield9744]

@@mountainbuck I did for sure! Thanks again.

[@charltonlwalker]

Good video. I don’t let the teeth drag on the bark when I make my moves. Angle stand down and move up with cable barely rubbing bark. Much quieter.

[@mountainbuck]

Thanks for the feedback and the tip, Charlton👍🏻

[@DavidAnderson-gp6gi]

Thanks for your help today.

[@mountainbuck]

Hey David! Absolutely! Thanks for checking out my channel. Best of luck with your Summit👍🏻

[@mikedelucia3472]

Thanks for the tips. Been using my summit for years but learned a few things from your video 👍👍👍👍

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Mike, thanks so much for the kind words. I really appreciate it! Best of luck this season 👍🏻

[@pg981]

Good demo , I prefer to pull the bag up with the rope. I also have a short piece of rope with a carabiner attached to my rifle in case it goes overboard. 👍

[@mountainbuck]

Hey p g, thanks for checking out my channel and for the feedback! Always good to have your stuff tied down just in case!

[@ingeniousmechanic]

Thats almost my exact setup, I unsnap my bag shoulder straps and hook over shooting rail, pulls it up a little higher and keeps it centered, slightly less interference with platform lift, it still gets in the way a little though. I'm planning to add some more convenient buckles to just snap it onto rail where it'll be most optimal

[@mountainbuck]

That’s awesome, Sarge! Thanks for the feedback and for checking out my channel! Merry Christmas!

[@ingeniousmechanic]

@@mountainbuck absolutely. Merry Christmas

[@thomasreece3903]

Love my Summit stand. I call it the office

[@mountainbuck]

Haha great nickname👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@L2fish]

I hang my bag the same way. Gun season I strap my gun to the stand top where the seat is

[@mountainbuck]

Hey David, thanks for checking out my channel! That’s cool you use the same technique! Best of luck this season!

[@mikesarkansasoutdoorsman3314]

Careful with the downward angle of the bottom section.

[@tonyguerrier2258]

Great video, can you show or explain how you attach the backpack to the climber when you're walking in or out of the woods?

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Tony, thanks for checking out my channel! Hook me up and hit subscribe if you could! I usually just wear the backpack on my back and then add the climber on top of it. It's a bit bulky, but having those summit bungee backpack straps help make up for the extra room that's needed.

[@joshsmith4213]

I where my back back on my front side when I have the climber on my back

[@joesoileau990]

I attach my backpack to the back of the Viper. I find it easier with the climber strapped to my shoulders and it doen't feel as bulky.

[@twinsoutdoors2247]

Awesome advice!

[@mountainbuck]

Thanks Twins Outdoors! You guys are the best!

[@Crayz919]

From my / deers perspective u should leave the back pack hanging infront of you on shooting rail to block you and any movement... jmo !

[@mountainbuck]

I’ve done that. Good call! Best of luck this season 🦌👍🏻

[@argndogo]

Wow!! Thank you!! Very helpful video!!

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Zach, good to hear from you! I appreciate the kind words. 👍🏻

[@HardRockMiner]

I find it way quieter if I put my backpack on the bottom part and move it up after I'm up in the tree. Quiet is key.

[@mountainbuck]

Hey HardRockMiner, thanks for checking out my channel and for your perspective! Best of luck this season 👍🏻

[@HardRockMiner]

@@mountainbuck - Thanks. I'm already tagged out. Been a good year here.

[@edgonzo11]

Can you show a video on how to secure top part to tree? I bought my viper summit used and thought that was to attach both parts together lol

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Eddy, thanks for checking out my channel. I show the process in this video. You just need to use the 1” utility strap and interweave it through the seated platform and around the tree. Skip through and you should be able to see it kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKLNiGucrtxmfZY

[@alvinthomas3031]

I just purchased the summit titan SD and have never used a climbing stand before video was very useful thanks a bunch like tony i was wondering about how u walk out as well with the backpack and stand together.

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Alvin, thanks for checking out my channel! Please hook me up and hit subscribe if you could. I show how you nest the sections together and prep for transport at the end this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZLTXn6AfsmAi68 - also, don’t forget to use the flat 1” strap to secure the top platform to the tree once you are at the top. Best of luck this season! 👍🏻

[@justinsaylor2639]

Thanks man great video

[@mountainbuck]

Hey thanks Justin! I appreciate you checking out my channel! Best of luck this season 👍🏻

[@cmill28]

Finally did it today bro smacked a buck! 7 point very close to being an 8 point. Just wanted to tell you! It was a odd looking rack!

[@mountainbuck]

That’s freakin awesome cmill!!!!! I’m super pumped for you! Congrats!!! Are you going to mount it?

[@cmill28]

@@mountainbuck yeah I have the antlers off of it now with a little bit of the head still on so I can mount them. It’s not a huge spread or a trophy but it was a legal shooter! Thanks man I’m still happy! First kill out of my climber tree stand.

[@mountainbuck]

@@cmill28 awesome! That new climber is already paying off!!!

[@Briguy933]

Need a set of third hand archery straps

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Briguy, thanks for checking out my channel and for the feedback. A lot of guys mention those, but I don’t see a need for them (just my opinion). That Hazmore seat, however, seems like a nice mod.

[@Briguy933]

@@mountainbuck hazmore is awesome, had one on a lone wolf sit n climb years ago. Unfortunately now lone wolf is no longer producing climbers, can’t get parts etc. going to end up with the viper mini.

[@mountainbuck]

@@Briguy933 I've seen that about Lone Wolf. Strange situation. Let me know how you like that Mini!

[@richardtoepfer9326]

I just buckle my waist belt through the rails with the zippers facing me. Keeps the gun off the metal and quieter movements

[@mountainbuck]

Good tip! Thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@reddawng43x91]

I just wear my back pack normal and sling my gun on front of me when climbing so nuthing to pull up unless I’m bow hunting then I’ll use a rope for bow but sometimes I’ll even lay my bow across the stand while I’m climbing . Also that is the noisiest climb I’ve ever heard , you need to practice on fully disengaging the climber up n out before moving each section! Good luck 👍🏻

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Red dawn. Thanks for checking out my channel. I've climbed with my backpack on as well and that method works out pretty well.

[@steveb1507]

As a newer hunter I gotta ask. Say I'm going in for a late afternoon hunt. Will the sound of scaling the tree not spook all the deer around you? Your videos on this stand have me convinced to try it, but i'm worried about spooking everything within earshot.

[@mountainbuck]

Hey thanks for watching! I didn’t climb too quiet in any of the videos and you can definitely go slower and quieter. That being said, you can absolutely have deer coming in during the late afternoon after you’ve climbed a tree. There’s a decent bit of time before sundown where I find that deer are more likely to be on the move. If you’ve been sitting up there for a good bit and you aren’t making a bunch of noise, moving around and have good scent control, you should be good to go! Best of luck this season 🦌👍🏻

[@paxpardee8807]

It all made sense when you pulled the crossbow up

[@mountainbuck]

Hey thanks for watching! What made sense?

[@crazypaul3997]

What if you have to pee as soon as you get all set up?😮

[@mountainbuck]

Haha well, you’ve got a couple of options 🤣
