{"title":"Tree Stands","description":"\u003cp\u003eA tree stand puts you above a deer's line of sight and gets your scent off the ground. This collection covers ladder stands, hang-on and climbing tree stands, and hunting saddles from Muddy, along with deer stand accessories for hunting oak bottoms and creek drainages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Choose a Tree Stand\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKnow your trees\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMuch of Texas does not have tall, straight trunks. Mesquite and cedar are often too crooked or short for climbers. Live oak, pecan, and cottonwood along creeks offer better options. Look at your hunting area before choosing a style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLadder stand for a set spot\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA ladder stand is the easiest and most stable option for a spot you will hunt repeatedly, such as a creek crossing or field edge. It takes time to set up, so put it in during the off-season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eClimbing tree stand for mobility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA climbing tree stand lets you hunt different trees without leaving gear in the woods, but it needs a straight trunk with no low limbs. Practice at home before using it in the dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHunting saddle for the lightest setup\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA hunting saddle is light, packable, and works on crooked trees where a platform stand will not sit level. It has a learning curve, and long sits take some getting used to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComfort for long sits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeat padding, platform size, and a shooting rail make a big difference over a few hours. Consider how a stand sits in the heat; mesh seats breathe better than foam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSafety is not optional\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlways wear a full-body harness connected to the tree from the moment you leave the ground until you are back down. A lifeline lets you stay clipped in while climbing. Inspect straps and cables every season, since sun damage weakens them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow high should a deer stand be?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany hunters set stands roughly 15 to 20 feet high, depending on the cover behind them. Higher is not always better if you lose background cover or create steep shot angles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLadder stand or climbing tree stand: which is better?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLadder stands are more stable and easier for beginners. Climbing stands are better for hunters who move around. Your trees often decide for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan you leave a tree stand up all year?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome hunters do, but sun and weather wear down straps and seats. Check property rules and inspect everything before every season.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"muddy-the-partner-17-2-man-ladder-stand","title":"Muddy The Partner 17' 2-Man Ladder Stand","description":"\u003cp\u003eA comfortable, solid perch for two hunters over your best trail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17 ft stand height; 2-person\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e500 lb weight capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlex-Tek waterproof seat, 37 in W x 18 in D\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40 in W x 33 in D platform with expanded-metal grates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePadded armrests and shooting rail; nylon silencers throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes two 4-point full-body harnesses; 9 in minimum tree diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAvailability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Coming soon to BoxedBuck.
