This video is extremely helpful. I just bought a climbing stick and stand combo and the first time setting it up was difficult trying to figure out how to place everything but you gave me some good tips to try. Thank you

Really appreciate your insight and methods. Im 33 trying to DIY my way to hunt whitetail. Appreciate you, sir!

Great insight and video. I started mobile hunting last year and I like it. Thanks.

Thank you for this wonderful video. It's really good and very interesting.

Great video. Almost my exact method. I like your loops for carrying sticks on your side better. I’ll use that. My treestand modern Hawk Helium. I put a small loop paracord near seat. When I get up I screw in a little hook. Pull stand up and hang on hook with the cord. Let’s me then put the 2 straps to tree very easy. Look forward to more of your videos.

I found this helpful. When I bought my Novix Echo I was looking for a video like this for ideas. This is not for the faint of heart but it is doable with practice. I’m 50 years old. Even though his hang on is different than mine this video is still applicable. My goal is to use this setup and get a deer with archery on public land. I already have a buck and doe using ladder stands on private property which feels like cheating compared to a hang on! 😂

Really helpful thank you great video

Great video, thanks!

Thank you.

Id have myself strapped to the tree upside down somehow trying to use this method! I've got too much bad luck to try this

Great Video. As far as getting down. Are you using the lineman’s rope to get back down? How do you stay connected in between disconnecting and when putting the lineman’s rope back on? Hope this makes sense.

Yes I do the same thing as getting on the stand in reverse order. Put the bottom rope around the tree, disconnect the top rope, and climb down to the sticks

Great video and you are an excellent teacher.

Why are you not using carabiners for all this? It would be a lot easier to unclouded rather than untie.

The muddy pro sticks are the best sticks you can buy for the money. I pretty much have the same set up as you. I will always use a hang on stand. The saddle thing aint for me!

So you're doing all this in pitch black at 5 in the morning?

Absolutely.. practice makes perfect . In Military training we trained a lot under darkness and it becomes second nature .

The furthest I’ve walked with this setup is about a mile and a half in

Those muddy stands were way too heavy for a hang and hunt.

It doesn’t seem very fast with all that stuff lol

Whats the gameplan for a tired 39 year old getting back into hunting….not sure its this!

I'll be 47 this year and running a similar setup with a only few differences. Age is only a number my friend.

​@@tristanmiller494152 and moving to a saddle soon. Not always a number but it's like shooting 70 or 75 lbs, work up to it. Use it or lose it!

Great info here on getting up and down the tree safely. One thing you said that I do not agree with is sometimes you grab a tree limb to get into your stand. This I would have to respectfully disagree with. Never use a tree limb when climbing a tree it’s one of the first rules for tree stand safety. I understand that you like your mobile set up and that's great but why do a review on products that are no longer available? Run and gun / mobile set ups have come a long way and are much lighter than the old muddy gear. A good run and gun set up is not cheap but you only need to buy one set and it will last you a lifetime. Personally I have went to a saddle for my run and gun set up and I love it! When it comes to cutting down on weight a saddle set up is hard to beat.

I just ordered my first saddle set up I can’t wait to pull down my 20 or so fixed tree stands. I have enough metal in the bush to build a tank and it’s so much effort to get it up the deer patterns changing year to year, stands getting stolen, looking forward to the lightweight run and gun set up I hope it works for me! Saddle Hunt in here in Alberta Canada is unheard of not a hunting store within sight selling it everything I bought had to come out of the US churching churching churching bring cash

It was not a review on the unit but how to set up a tree stand.

So apparently you don’t scout your way in to hang n hunt

Geesh dude, he is showing us how he sets it up. we are not on a hunt with him.

Man ill be honest lost faith in this setup seems like a whole lot of moving pieces especially if trying to get in quickly and quietly at dark

It’s definitely not for everyone, but it sure has worked great for us!

A video showing equipment no longer available. Think about it.

Loud af set up and slow. I hope you aint carrying that tree stand in your hands for 1 to 2 miles on public land. 😂

No wonder they discontinued this tree stand.

Great tutorial! Do you ever leave your stand and sticks in the tree for a full season?

I will leave other stands and sticks all season, but this particular setup is my run-and-gun mobile setup that I take down and move from hunt to hunt

Great to see. Wish I could have gotten one of these stands back in the day. Too bad they’re no longer available
