$40 - $50 tree stand?

[FL SNIPER]

Last January I picked up a Rivers Edge hanger style tree stand at Joe's sporting goods for $40...reg. $60. I like it...sat in it one time and shot a doe with the bow. Should have picked up two at the time (can never have enough).

I'm interested in picking up another hanger style tree stand (any brand) if I could get one for around the same price.

Question: Has anyone seen a hanger style tree stands for around $40 - $50? If so, what store and location?

Thanks. I figured I'd ask, because it might save me some windshield time...and time better spent in the woods!

Yes, there are many good stands for around 50 bucks. Any sporting goods store will have what you are looking for. No bells and whistles but good economical stands. Good luck!

Sounds good...thanks. I'll probably just hit the fleet farm then...I've picked them up there before.

Good place to look for sure. Let us know if you find an real good deals! Good luck!

Didn't Menards have hang-ons on sale for ~30 bucks a week or two ago? I know they had a ladder stand for ~60, so give them a call.

Thanks Tim. I just checked there ad online...I see the ladder stand you're talking about. I've never had a ladder stand before...but it's not a problem for me to leave the stand on the tree (private property)...maybe I'll give that a try.

I picked one up last night at menards for 60 bucks i think for the money their is no way you can beat it. I would go for it if i were you.

Well I swung by Fleet Farm yesterday. Ended up buying another rivers edge bandit hanger stand. It was just under 50 bucks. Maybe I could have gotten a better deal some place else, but to me it wasn't worth the gas and time to go around looking for one (not to mention I hate shopping). I went with the hanger style over the ladder style because it will give me more options.

They had quite a few different styles of stands to choose from and they have their full arsenal of hunting gear and clothing out.
