[QUOTE="themanpcl, post: 5579721, member: 12032"] WOW! That's a lot of land. Just my opinion, whether you choose ladders, lock on's, climber's you leave in the woods or any combination, location by season is key. Where you place a ladder or lock on for early fall season will probably not be the same spot as a stand for later in the season when leaves fall. Typically you would want to have those in place by July in order to give time for the area to get back to "normal" prior to opening of season. Relocating ladder or lock on is more difficult than moving a climber so if you plan to move them in season, that may be tricky. Using a rainy/windy day helps. With the lock on approach, using mobile sticks and old school lock on's, that makes sense for $ but the same problem when moving them (time, noise, disturbing area etc). With that amount of acreage, if you aren't going to run n gun based on weather and need to put in ladders and lock on's, you may want to look at more than what you suggest above. I have just under 100 acres and use 6 ladders (2 that were on the property are embedded in the tree so cannot move..lol) as well as 2 lock on's, a few climbers I leave in the woods and I run n gun w/ saddle.
