Originally posted by awbowman: BTW, a loc-on is often deemed more "appropriate" for public land mobility (going deeep away from crowds) due to its lighter weight, but with enough sticks to get up 16-18' I have not seen a noticeable difference in packed weight.
Originally posted by doeboy: I like them both and they both have there place. climbers are a bit heavy and you will need to practice to get comfotable in them shooting and puting them on the tree in the dark and climbing with them. its not hard but like anything takes some getting used too. I use an Ol' Man climber and wont use any other brand (used them all)the mobility is key but requires mature trees and straight trees to be used. even a slight lean on a tree makes me feel funny. over all my climber is comfortable and stable and always an option i look for when scouting new spots.
