Equalizer treestand
« on: January 11, 2009, 02:30:00 PM »
This stand has been out a few years now. Has anyone used it? If so, can you give us a review, please?

I bought mine the first year they came out (2004?) They were still with "BuckShot Treestands" then. I like mine alot, I have called the company for spare/replacement parts twice and received them quickly.

Bloody arrow, what do you like about it? Does it pack well? Is it comfortable?

I had a Summit Viper and bought the Equalizer. I like it much better. The ability to make it level is great. The quality is great. The system they have to lock the two pieces together really is excellent. I got the sling seat for it. It packs fine. I quit looking for the ultimate tree stand. I have it.

They are imported.  I have had 3 types of the Buckshot treestands and like them all.  I do not have the equalizer but if I could sale my "Convertable" I'd get one.

The "Cadilac" is the most comfortable but you face the tree.

Just got off the phone with them, I e-mailed a few questions and they called me instead of emailing back--Great customer service. I like talking to folks when it's possible. Anyway, she confirmed they were imported- They have used the same manufacturer for the last 18 years. I think I will give one a whirl.

They sent me an email stating they will be going up 20 bucks soon. If you order in January, they will give you a cushion to put on the tree to lean against.

I'm leaning toward getting one for next year.

Equalizer has revamped their operation! They are now taking orders again, and everything is built in-house. 100% built in the USA! Check out their new website at buckshotmfg.com.
Plant a fruit or nut tree today, and have good hunting tomorrow.

I have 2 equalizer stands, one of them I got in 2004 the other I got used last year..it still looked new! I like being able to level the stand as I climb. I use the Hazmore Silent Seat on them.

I have had one for years now and love mine as well. They are built well and lie stated above they are all US now. Great folks to work with too. I like the equalizer way more than any other climber I have used. The only thing you have to be careful of is hitting the rail with your limb. OOPS I guess I wasn't supposed to get that doe!
