Big Dog 2 man stands
« on: July 11, 2007, 08:05:40 AM »
Been using a 15ft ladder stand for seven years and have taken 12 bucks out of it in that time.Now I'm thinking of upgrading to a 2 man stand for more room and be more comfortable as I am in it pretty much daylight to dark.I'm lookig at a couple in the Big Dog brand and just wanted to see if anyone here has any experience with this brand.Looking at big dog extreme 15ft,and the new stadium with a 53.5 X 19.5 curvedplatform and it is 20ft high.Feel free to reply about other brands yo like also.Thanks

I have two and I really like them. My boy is nine and these stands are just the right height. I built a roof over and draped camo military netting over them. Last season he got two bucks.

Thanks hawkenman,just to update I ordered a big dog red tick last week and its been shipped so should get it this week.Its not a 2 man stand but is bigger than what I have and will fit in the tree better.The tree is a big old walnut that branches out from main trunk into three limbs at 13 feet and after measuring could only go 33inches wide at 15ft,and this one is 29 3/4 wide so should fit well.

Well just to update,got the big dog red tick stand today.Got it almost put together and dang, one brace is missing.So there is an 800 number on the sheet to call if anything is bent,broke or missing so will call them tomorrow.Got to sit in it without the ladder attached and man I'm going to like this one!
Also got the things you put on bottom of ladder with adjustments so you can level the stand on uneven ground,which I am so should do well.Now to get some camo blind netting to put around it and put my roof up and be ready for deer season!

Very happy with Big Dogs customer service,called at noon on thursday told them what part was missing he said he would take care of it right away and in fact would put it in the mail no questions ask.Well got part today so pretty good service which I won't forget!Also stopped at walmart and they had a blind made for stands that will be perfect so I got one.I'm ready,soon as it gets alittle cooler as I have to pack it up a steep hill for a ways to put it up.
