Check on Craigslist. A guy was selling a Tree Lounge with the Archery package (not sure what that is) for $150 a week or so ago.

Might have been my tree stand. I have a self climber made by Summit.  I just am not a tree stand hunter.  Used it 6 times I think.  Have the harness to go with it and instructional dvd.  Send me a PM if you more details.  Thanks, Dan

Three are good, Summit, Summit and Summit, but then again, that is just my opinion:)

advice given to me by an avid tree stand hunter.  By a size bigger than you need, because once you get in the tree you will will want the extra space.  I bought a Summit for fat kids last year, and the extra space is very nice.

Make sure it's light, I love hiking in a few miles and then getting in my stand. It's nice having the climber so you can find new areas on the move and just get up in your perch any place you want.
