I used m summit climber this year near adams I used it for a morning sit and eving sit with still hunting during the day... i had a couple come in down wind from me while up in the tree.. I mainly like it because 1 its comfy 2 it reduces sent 3 You can see so much more just 10-20 ft up. I challenge anyone in western wa justto take n extension ladder into the woods and prop the damn thing up to a tree, climb up and take a look around... You see down into the brush, not through it.  :twocents:
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

For elk i think a climber is good but any  tree stand is a must for blacktail.. if you cannot justify a new one buy a used one...  :twocents:
