D*I*C*K*S sporting goods has the 15' ladder stands on sale again this week for $50 . They are worth the money ! I put two of them up in South Bristol and have another one to install .  |

It is exactly 300 pounds . *** It also has a harness that fits around each leg plus your upper body ***. It's a heck of a deal for fifty bucks ! I don't use the straps that come with the stands as I prefer to use Ratchet Straps . They may not be necessary but they make me feel more secure ............ |

You don't look like your close to 300 lbs. in the photo Bubba. How much equipment are you carrying?

Before I started dieting I was 290. Now down to 245 and still losing. I dont carry much but like to be under the weight by a bit. I used a 2 person stand for the longest time just to feel comfortable.

Single person stands can get a little tight for everyone with heavier clothing and equipment. I hover just below two bills and still feel cramped in my stands during colder weather. Nice work dropping the weight.
