Default tree stands

I just wondering what tree stands are the best for comfort, size of trees that they go up?
I will be using it for rifle hunting and truth is my back will hurt if I sit to straight to long it will be putting the hurt on me. Being as old as I am. Any suggestions would help. Thanks.

Hey Eddie: You must not have watched that video very closely on the "Tree Lounge". That would be the most comfortable tree stand for an old man like yourself. :grin: :grin: Really....didn't you see the guy asleep in the lounge? You want to watch that film again?? Maybe you fell asleep in the video "T-Bone"

F E, you should be asking Ol' monkeyboy himself, Fishalot.
Everyone I know has slept in their Grand Slam Supremes. You can climb a pretty large trunk. But that tree lounge looks comfy.

That is right Eddie you should have come to me for tree stand advice :depressed: A guy like you with all that money can get one of the Tree Lounge stands, the only proplem is you will be sleeping not hunting.

The Warren and Sweat Woodsman is highly rated for comfort, has arm rests and a front cross bar (good steadying the rifle), and best of all GI Joes in Hillsboro has one left, the display. Steve, the sporting goods mgr REALLY wants to get rid of it.
Email me. I'll give you the scoop.

Hope you are very aware as to the high risk of
persoal injury that come with getting in and out of tree stands.............I know "it can't happen to me" guys who had it happen to them. One broke both arms and it was a nightmare, he still has problems though the fall was nearly 20 years ago.
Just be very careful.
