I use cranford t steps for mobile hunting. They are easily my favorite mobile hunting climbing method. You don’t need to pre drill holes for cranford steps instead use a short length of pipe for leverage to twist them into the tree. To be blunt if your presetting trees than paying for cranford steps is crazy you should be using grade 8 bolts. The last time I bought grade 8 bolts in bulk they were around 80 cents apiece.Heading out to preset some trees. When pre-drilling holes for Cranford steps what size are y’all using?
Last year I did it by hand with no predrilled holes… I won’t do that again.

This is excellent. Thanks for sharing! Once the poison ivy clams down, ill be back out there.I primarily use Ameristep screw in tree steps. I use the step up ones for climbing and the Grizzly for my ring of steps. I probably have over 300 and use the Ultimate Tree Step tool and have no problem installing both types. I do many presets before the season.
