Not looking for a tree stand hybrid setup. But I like to stand up often and would like a bigger platform to move around a bit. What's everyone using?
Are you able to share a picture? Would love to ditch my one stick and just carry my mission.I use a mission for 2 primary reasons, the size and it was easy to modify it into a one sticking platform.

@Bets There you go. I did replace the versa button with a cam cleat before season and it made climbing with it easier for sure.
6.75 iirc. No issues with the cleat at all. So far, lol. I didnt add an extra piece, I just bought a 20" section of tubing from EWO, swapped over the mission parts to the top, and added the stuff at the bottom. Helps a lot to go up the tree where you are 90 degrees left or right of the platform instead of going up in line like you would with a regular stick. Dont have to worry about toe hooking because that is built into the climb. When I get to height just cam the platform down and it is rock solid.Did you have any issues with the Cam cleat when it cam to camming the platform with the leverage? Then it looks like you added an extra bottom section for the stick portion?
Thank you very much btw. Very nice set up. Guessing it keeps you under 8lbs total?
I dont cam this one over fully to climb. Just enough to reach the rope in the cam cleat, a couple inches is all. Look forward to seeing yours. How much longer? I was trying to keep the length as short as functional with this build. Had though about going 32 or so inches and have 2 steps below the platform but decided against it.I will post a pic of mine later. I bought a length of the square tubing a little longer and put the cam cleat below the pivot point for the platform. Now when I climb I use as a one stick and don't cam the platform over until it is time to set up and hunt. I use a 3 step aider off the bottom step also.
