For those who own Beast Sticks, how many do you recommend to buy? I was thinking three or four (possibly with aiders). I have used 4 Lone Wolf sticks with a hang on Lone Wolf stand and transitioning to saddle hunting this year. I would love to hear your advice and experiences. Thanks!
 
I got on the first run and bought 4.. I use an eider on the first stick and it works perfect. IMO i think 3 is not enough but some ppl use movable eiders and other things and could get away with less.. I only use eider on bottom step for safety purposes only. They are a great way to get higher with less sticks and weight I just prefer to have it only on bottom step. im also 5'10'' so there are taller ppl who can use a larger stick spacing than me.

I bought 8 (4 four me and four for my son).

I'd overbuy, because once inventory is gone, it's a LONG wait. If you overbuy, you can ALWAYS get your money back due to limited supply / high demand.
 
If you don't like them, you can sell them on here for the same price you paid, maybe even more. Get what you think you need, and if you're the type that likes backup, get a couple extra.
 
I got 6 for me and then I got 6 for my buddy. We like to go high.

Better get 5 if your used to 4 lone wolfs. I couldn’t pull myself and get the leverage like I could with a full length lone wolf. If you’re into aiders, the beast sticks is probably the best option and you could get away only with 3 or 4.
 
I bought four last year, now I also have aiders attaches to each stick ...

that stick you see wasn't set to where i would normally have it(sent a pic to my son). top step on would be around chin height and that would be 5 feet to the top step. so around the twenty foot mark on the fourth stick..... i put the platform many another 6 inches higher at the 9 o'lock position

That’s perfect. I was planing on doing the same thing.

. I believe they were 57 inches..... had them sewn at a local shoe repair shop... figure about 5 inches folded over and sewn left me with about 23 inches from the top of the bottom step to the bottom of the aider

i also put about twelve inch piece of 7/8 inch rope inside the strap to keep the loop open for the climb
 
I bought 5. Got me high enough for anything I encountered. I think I used 4 about 75 percent of the time.

Was thinking about getting a couple more.... just in case...:cool:
