......I know the story behind that stand and it's creation. I wouldn't give that company my money is all. Not going to say anymore. Its a nice stand though. Enjoy it. If your happy with it, I'm happy for you.

Hey Sprung... lay it out for me... I don’t have a dog in the fight. Just liked that set up for the bouncing around I have to do in these government woods around here

Had forgotten about Baker stands. Had one once. Remember when I got the hand climber a year later. Used to climb loblolly pines me with one. Scary.

I have both the regular and smaller lone wolfs. That smaller one is one stealthy stand. I’m not sure you could get one to make a noise either. I had a hook on my harness to hold the stand on way up the tree. Once to elevation, a quick lineman's rope around tree and stand was off hook around tree. Quick, easy, and safe.

Nah. Like I said it's Christmas. Regardless of what happened, it's still a great stand and you will really like it. The set up is great that you have. Enjoy it.

No better way to hone your de-climbing technique than trying to use a Baker stand.

It’s a wonder I have hair on my chin and face! Killed a pile of deer out of those Bakers...when they would stay up in the trees, lol. Shimmied down many a tree cause I was too scared to fall or jump!

Savell, I can’t believe you’re high dollaring that stand. Put the window sticker on the truck window?

Ok that is gonna get you and Jesse Henry's mom called down to the school fer sure when his teacher finds huntin' and trappin' stickers stuck to her rear end.

It was a game when I was in Jr High- teachers were scared to sit down w/o checking what we had booby trapped their chair with. Good times

Cattrax for the win!!!

I always referred to them Baker stands as gravity stands instead of climbing stands.

Anyone remember the one called the tree lounge? It was like a recliner tree stand.
That one should have come with a parachute and emergency locator beacon.
Got a old friend who was in one it had a gravity spike, went straight down from about 20 ft up a gum tree and he ended up with a broken back, a broken leg and internal injuries.
The crazy rascal crawled on his belly 200 yards to his truck draggin that stand and then crawled back and got a deer decoy he borrowed from another friend, had to climb up into his truck and drove himself to the hospital ER.
