What are you looking for in a tree stand? I know what I want from one. The Trailhawk Osprey Ladder Stand provides each of the things that I need a stand to have. It provides safety, comfort, elevation, and one-man usability.

The Osprey ladder stand is easy to use. It comes in three main parts with some additional accessories. Each separate part of the ladder has adjustable straps to hold it safely against the tree. It requires little effort to fit the pieces together and prop it up. Once you prop it up in a good spot you just start at the bottom tightening the straps as you climb the ladder. Once you get to the top you can give it a good fastening with the pre-attached ratchet strap. The ladder stand has a soft cushioned swivel seat. The floor frame is hinged and can be raised up to ensure a safe un –obstructed climb. The stand comes with a safety belt and a rope for lifting/ lowering your equipment.

The Trailhawk Osprey ladder stand is lightweight, durable, and easy to use. One of its greatest features is the fact that all of its parts have their own strap. This allows a solid fit, which makes the stand very quiet. It's a good piece of gear for bow hunting, rifle hunting, taking photos, or what ever you can think of.
