This is gonna be my first year going moble with a portable set up.....when u guys r accending up the tree do you keep the stand on your back or do you hoist it up with a tow rope?

 

[Rhody Hunter]

hoist it up don't keep it on your back . that can lead to problems. i put the sticks over my shoulder as i go up and attach them to the tree. then i pull the stand up

I keep it on my back

I hang the first three sticks, then go down throw the stand on my back and grab the 4th stick. Works great.

Ditto

Depends on how quiet im trying to be... Ive hung the first 3 and then climbed down, got the 4th and put the stand on my back like mentioned.... but I find myself hanging all my sticks first and them trying two ropes to me.... One to the LW alpha and another to my backpack/camera bag. Makes it nice to not have to run up and down a tree sweating a bunch if your gonna hunt that day

You should practice and figure out what works best for you.

I agree, you need to practice it and get familiar.

How to pack it up and all, they were made by Dan Infalt.

Pull up rope everytime

I also agree, sometimes I pull it up, but if I feel comfortable in the tree, I'll keep it on my back. I use screw in steps, so I don't have to worry about the sticks clanking on the stand.

So....if you use the hoist system...u would need atleast 2 hoists?...1- for stand 1- for bow and what about late season with warm bag suit?
