Climber with sticks

[DeerDylan]

I mainly hunt from my LW hand climber and as everyone knows you can't climb every tree out there. I was thinking, I wonder how well it would work if I bought sticks and used them with my climber platform? I guess I am being cheap but has anyone done this?

It would work but I would be afraid of the stand kicking out when stepping on or off. Wouldn't be nearly as stable as a strap and cam lock.

Very good point. Maybe could take a strap with hooks on both ends to help stabilize it. Thanks for the input.

I've used the sticks with other climbers. It works fine, just have to be careful stepping in but I've never had any issues. But definitely make sure u are tied off when stepping in

I've done it many times with my submit viper. Often a tree is quite climbable after the first 5-10 feet. I've used two sticks, then climbed the rest of the way and worked great.

I use several summit bushmaster climbers as lockons. Just rachet strap them so they don't move
