One bad that about climbers is that when you hunt a swampy area with trees that have buttressing (widder at the base). It makes it difficult to climb because your stand will be pinting downward by the time you get higher in the tree to a hunting height. To help this problem I started carrying one of my muddy climbing sticks with my climber and I can put the muddy stick on the tree at the base which gives me an extra 4-5 ft up before I put my climber on the tree.

I think a climber is what I'm after. I have used them before and feel safer in a climbing vs a lockon.
