[QUOTE="Omega, post: 5644967, member: 20060"] So went back on Memorial Day to check on my spot and to place the Ridgeline stand from our buddy [USER=11563]@gatodoc[/USER] . The grass is coming along nicely, hope it sticks around, but I was disappointed a little when all I seen was grass. The brand I used usually had a bunch of clover in it, but now that I want it their quality gets better. [IMG width="637px"]https://i.imgur.com/ImR7naY.jpg[/IMG] I usually work alone so had to figure out how to get the stand to the spot I wanted without help, so decided to go back to my army days and used two skedcos tied together to drag it to its spot then used the ladder trick to flip it upright though I modified it a bit. After installing two legs, the ones off the ground, I placed a ratchet strap around the stand at the top, then ran a ratchet strap from that strap, over the ladder down to an anchor tree. I tightened the strap until the bottom of the legs touched the ground then anchored the legs in place with ground anchors. From there I installed a second strap, then it was just a matter of tightening the straps one at a time and alternating once the spool was full on one. Once the stand was upright, I went a little further to install the other two legs. No pics of the process unfortunately as I was racing a storm that was coming in, but did manage one when on the skedcos. [IMG width="649px"]https://i.imgur.com/xW6OmqP.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
