I'm really leaning towards the Beast Sticks. I've been stuck on the OG LW stick for quite a while and need to upgrade this year.

So far, have you seen anything new for 2025 that you'd buy over the Beast Sticks?

TIA
 
2025 is the year of no sticking. 2TC or Die. I think that's how I heard it said here.
I'm too old and fat for that, I'll stick to one sticking. :tearsofjoy:

Sorry @Dooger , Not trying to derail your thread. Its just that at 62 and well over 200# I still find one sticking to be one of the easiest, most versatile ways to climb a tree.

I'm not old but I am fat. Still one sticking with some 2tc dabbled in there. I'd rather one stick if possible but that's just me.
 
I really like Beast sticks. I have old cut down Lone Wolfs (Novix now) single steps that were nice but the Beast sticks are a definite upgrade with the double step and they really grip the tree well. I prefer the Beast sticks over Tethrd One Sticks too due to stand off distance. I've been on trees where I've used Beast sticks nearly horizontally and stepped on the tubing portion and they didn't budge. I ditched the cam buckles and use a daisy chain amsteel with a trucker's hitch to attach them to the tree.
 
Latitude SS sticks. 62 years old, 240lbs, 13” boot. Best sticks I have used based on weight, packing/stacking, and attachment to the tree. Own two sets for redundancy. Have cycled through three other manufacturers/style sticks.
 
I’m another vote for the Latitude sticks. I use one of them to one stick, but when I used multiple sticks I used them. I think they’re awesome. Light weight, stackable, easy on/off the tree, never kick out, and fairly affordable.
 
Beast sticks, especially with the promo running right now are extremely hard to beat. I never have a doubt with them, that being said I use them as the tried and true backup so I can goof off with other new to me sticks. I do use beast sticks every year at least once or twice though.
 
I’m very tempted to get another set of Beast sticks with the sale right now. Currently using Carbon SS sticks too and they have been great.
 
Beast stick's would be a great option, I've been using them for years and have been great

I bet that tree is permanently stunted from the funk she was giving off.
