Sling Seat by Strongbuilt,
August 20, 2006
"Our hunt club has over 30 different types stands by many different manufactures. This is by far the most comfortable stand I know for gun hunting. It can be hard to stand up from when bow hunting, but you can sit in it all day long. Suggest using a ratched strap on the bottom of the stand to make it safer for getting in and out. The stand will not move on the tree this way!"

Comfortable killer,
July 23, 2007
"I bought two of these stands last year and sat both at two different locantions throughout the state of MO and had deer come within in two yards of it. I have read the other reviews and will agree that is bigger than some stands but if you are afraid of climbers like me or of falling out of others you don't have to be with this stand. When hanging the stand take a rope and tie it to the stand and climb up to a higher branch and use that branch to hoist the stand up to a disired place from the ground and tie it to a nearby tree. Yes it probably will need two people to get it in the tree but when hanging a treestand for the first time in any tree should take at least two people. Just in case of accidents. Anyway I'm about 6-feet and shoot a longer compound bow than most and I killed two deer with the shooting rest down while standing up. And during the gun season my brother used the shooting rest to take a 125 eight point. So the stand does work. Even though it does have a weight limit me and my friend were both standing on it exceeding the limit with just the two enclosed rachtet straps. When leaving or getting in the stand tie the shooting rail up so that entering and exiting will be easier. Because of its design entering and exiting is a little hard because of walking on the side of the stand. The stand does have plenty of room for putting packs under it or lifting the shooting rest and placing the packs on the bars that support the rest. And for extra safety I put a lock on the stand so that if the straps break the chain and lock will hold for a few seconds or longer and also just in case anyone wants to steal it. It is a good stand I have since bought two more and thinking about another."

heavy,
July 21, 2007
"This stand is heavy but im not the biggest and i got it up in a tree 25 feet high. Hard to get in if you use screw in steps. Sticks to tree well and doesn't rock at all. Extremely comfortable. Rail moves without a sound. never tried it as a rifle rest."

Strondbuilt tree stand,
November 26, 2006
By Gunrugerfan
from Leland , N.C.
"I have had several tree stands and this is the most comfortable tree stand I have ever sat in . I can set in it for 3 or 4 hours without having to get up and stretch . I have a bad back and this is the most comfortable . The only thing I can say that I don't like is the installation , but that is not really that bad either . I have installed it by myself , but you really need 2 people to put it up ."

Strongbuilt Sling Seat treestand,
September 30, 2006
By Jim111
from northern Vermont
"This is by far the safest and sturdiest treestand I have ever used. Once you ratchet that thing in place, it won't budge! It's as comfortable a stand as I ever sat in. I've been a professional hunting guide for 35+ years. I've used more brands of treestands than anyone I know or ever knew. I wish all my stands were of this quality. Only drawback is the weight and you'll want two people to put them up. But that's minor compared to what you get. I have a bad back, yet can sit this stand for hours on end. My only wish was that the seat was removeable, so I could leave them up year-round, minus the seat. With the shooting rail in place, this is the only treestand I'd sit in without the desire to wear a safety harness. I doubt I could ever figure out how to fall out of it, while sitting? I wear one anyway, of course. Everyone should. I've lost friends and fellow guides in the past, who were too careless (or brazen) and fell from stands."

Should Be Lazy Boy,
July 2, 2006
By Kajun Bow Sticker
from Da' Bayou
"This is one of the most comfortable stands I have ever used. I own 3. Heavy to hang but the T-bolt makes it easier. It sits far out from the tree so you need good cover. Rifle rest is a good attribute but it needs to be moved out the way for bowhunting.
Wear your safety belt because it is almost too comfortable!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Strongbuilt Sling Seat Fan,
July 1, 2006
By Hunt-n-nut
from Kannapolis, NC
"This stand is extraordinarily comfortable, almost too comfortable, but getting in and out of the stand takes some practice, particularly when wearing a safety belt. I would recommend practicing stepping off your ladder from the right side (if right handed) and visa versa. It seems to feel more comfortable for me that way."
