Easily nested into one compact package, these innovative steps mount quickly to the tree and give support for both feet at the same level. This extra stability makes hanging stands safer and easier. The cam-buckle attachment secures each climbing stick without noise or permanent damage to the tree. Top and bottom V-bars stabilize each step. Four Bucksteps elevate you approximately 16 ft. Set of four weighs 11 lbs. Weight capacity: 260 lbs.
I can have both feet at the same level while climbing up, and while hanging my tree stand. They are very stable and are very easy to set up. I purchased another set shortly after my original purchase.
I bought these because the reviews were good, and seemed like they would work for me. They are very clanky, and do not get me to the 20 feet I need to hunt in our program. So If I want to use them, I have to go and buy another stick to get to my 20 ft height. They have been in my garage since.
They seem to work ok, as I did test them on a tree, but I use my climber all the time cause of the height and noise issue.
You will not find a lighter stronger more solidly built set of climbing gear . They will go around, under and in between limbs and branches. The straps are top notch nylon. Look at the weight to hight ratio .You will not find a better light weight set for what you pay. I have 8 Hang on stands and 2 sets of Buck Steps. I wish I could afford 6 more sets. Best buy I ever made. They stack well and can be carried or strapped to your stand .The strap pouch is a big plus.
Great product they go up fast, are easy to climb, and build very solid in the USA. I have tried a few brands of climbing sticks these have been the best so far its nice being able to have both feet on each step which allows you to hang stands and such much easier.
