ShootEm Posted September 11 Posted September 11 Well folks, up for sale is a Summit Openshot SD climber that has been used 1 time. That’s correct, went up a tree once, came back down once, and realized it wasn’t my cup of tea. Asking for $275 as the stand retails for $330-350. Willing to drive and meet up. Stand is currently in the Rotterdam area (Schenectady county). Everything that comes with the stand from the factory is included, from the tie down strap to the heel bungee cord to the backpack straps. More pictures can be provided if needed. My mistake is your gain!
Caeden4 Posted September 11 Posted September 11 this is really tempting. and youre not too far from me either. ive been reluctant to spend the money on one because i've found that the older i get, the less i seem to like heights lol i have a feeling i'd be in the same boat youre in now if i were to buy it. which is crazy to me cause i probably spent half my childhood as high up in a tree as i could manage to climb.

And I much prefer ground hunting. But the climber itself, was solid and trouble free. Caeden4 and ShootEm 2

Maybe you should buy it, hate, than sell it's for another $100 less than you paid....then I'll jump on it!!!! Kidding- good luck with the sale. Great product at a great price ShootEm and Caeden4 2

For the purpose that they made it for, they absolutely nailed it. The lightweight and open seat are absolutely perfect for a bow hunter especially on some expansive public land. Appreciate the response though @Caeden4, good luck this year! Caeden4 1

dbHunterNY Posted September 12 Posted September 12 if you have issues getting rid of it I'll possibly take it. I'm not sure what i'd do with a 2nd one but yea. lol I love mine. screw the parts and pieces of a saddle. this is a simple setup that kills deer. for me at least. grampy and ShootEm 2

Stay in touch, I haven’t had any takers yet! I agree on the saddle thing, I grew up using API climbers and feel so at home in one of these things (Summit now) compared to anything else. The Openshot was just not quite my style but there’s no denying it’s great at what it’s meant for.
biggamefish Posted September 19 Posted September 19 This is my go to climber, I put a foam mat on the bottom and better shoulder straps and have been using it for years. This is a great deal and a great stand for a bow hunter. grampy and ShootEm 1 1
The_Real_TCIII Posted September 19 Posted September 19 My favorite thing about this stand is that you never have to set it on the ground because it doesn't "nest". The top sits on the bottom. So it comes off my back and right into the tree. Then I undo the straps and put the top on the tree and I'm ready to climb. Reverse when I'm leaving, I pack it all up with the platform on the tree. With the Vioer I need to find a clear spot on the forest floor to take it apart anyhow, buy this stand. It's a gem NYRturkeycall and ShootEm 1 1
