[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5645930, member: 1409"] Serious. I find climbers both "easier" and often quieter than ladder stands, at least for just the actual climbing/descending part. If I make an unnatural sound with a climber, it's my fault for being careless. I cannot prevent those loud metallic game-spooking "pops" of metal ladder stands. I didn't say using a climber was "quicker" than using a ladder. Ladders are much quicker. Just not necessarily physically easier or quieter. Now, having to pack in & out a climber is another issue. But so is needing to periodically relocate ladder stands, which can be relatively dangerous to relocating climbers. Because of the unpredictable metallic pops ladder stands can make, and don't use them much, and then mainly just for afternoon hunts where those "pops" are less likely to be heard by nearby deer. Ladders don't "pop" as often or loud in the afternoons vs. cold still mornings. I suspect your climbing stand sagas were much like your bowhunting sagas :p [/QUOTE]
