What's wrong with this picture?

Yes, and to @Wasp point, the owners were Margaret and Bob Hice, I believe. He always stuck that spine and couldn't find a lung to save his life!

Except the bow platform usad to fold up. This his solid. Th e patent on the lounge ended. Thered another company making them too called docs recliner (lounger). I believe someone at both uswd to work t the original factory.
 
I remember the demo he did where he climbed an aluminum pole and did that backwards layout he used to do. I gotta give him credit, back in the day that demo had the WOW factor.
 
I live about 5 miles from the original Tree Lounge factory/office. I hunted out of the extra long version for almost 15 years. Super comfortable, but with the plywood bow hunting adapter that thing weighed right around 30 pounds. I cannot believe the amount of weight I used to carry into the woods.
 
Selling advertising to cover the cost of the regulations book and website allows those dollars to be spent on better things.

I would normally agree, but we are talking about NC in this case. When is the last time a major publication or show bothered to mention coming here for trophies...never, and for good reason. We all leave home for that!

For being the most advanced treestand in the industry, they could have paid the advertisers a little more to get a better ad... lol

Looks like the old tree lounge style , where you would turn & face the tree , straddle that noisy looking fabric dangle your feet into that bottom section , start climbing & hope for the best....

It’s actually just a poor quality photo for the ad. Here is the original.
DAA40929-E824-47D0-9681-70FCD321C488.jpegThat’s not an arm guard but hair. She shotgun hunts also but has to wear a different top. It’s not exactly blaze orange but I don’t think she’ll be mistaken for a deer or bobcat and get shot out the tree.

Actually, that is not a hand climber and is in the right place (I actually have one coming for free from a friend to test for climbing with my saddle). This stand is either a knockoff or renamed company from the old Tree Lounge.

I used to have the original stand years ago. The foot piece worked, but was not great. My friend's dad passed away recently and he had one in his storage building, so no harm to play with it and see what I can do with it.

You found those photos mighty quick, and they're pretty high resolution. You active on any other sites I might wanna know about?

Ha. I actually can’t stand that type of advertising. Martin archery may build some good bows but I’ve never took them serious because of their choice in ads. If that’s what you have to sell in order to sell me a treestand, bow, or anything else for that matter I don’t need your product. Now it is obviously effective advertising since we have been talking about it for a couple days. That hang on stand on their site is light but doesn’t look like it will fold at all.
