TBD… I had 2 defective ones. See what a third brings…. Perfect dimensions so I am trying hard to like it. One thing I am pretty certain of though. That beast offset bracket is a terrible design. A true pos…. Shoulda just used a lone wolf bracket like he had on his prototypes.
10 4. That's why it's nice to get a 2nd opinion. From the youtube I would have thought the beast stand offset was the bees knees.

My favorite are the “gear reviews” when the person says “I haven’t been able to use XYZ product in the field yet, but blah, blah….”
Quickly turns into what’s essentially and unboxing.

The novix is pretty rock solid for killing deer. Helo or echo. It seems more beneficial to me to have 3 solid $200 stands vs one $600. But thats to each their own.

Don't forget that they all have to mention that they aren't sponsored by the company, they just sent it for them to review.

I didn’t have any issues with the offset bracket or anything else on my beast stand. I am on the lighter side at 160lbs though.
Oh, I am not sponsered by beast gear and paid full price for my stand…

Defeats the purpose if you need 3, doesn’t it? I have an echo, alpha, and assault 2. So I’m obviously not a great source:tearsofjoy:
