Rick,

I wanted to take the time to thank you for an absolutely awesome treestand!

My season wasn't going well this year, and the morning of October 30th didn't start any better. I had just started ascending the tree in my new "Perch" when a deer snuck in behind me when I was only 12 feet off the ground. Though it was still dark, the deer was within 10 yards of my tree. I was able to climb to a level of 25 feet without alarming the deer! You told me this treestand was a silent climber, I was skeptical, but not anymore!! The deer didn't spook and quietly walked away. An hour later this buck came in nudging does. A snort wheeze on my M.A.D. call got his attention. Luckily, the does weren't in heat and he came within 12 yards broadside. The Predators Perch was so quiet, I was able to maneuver around and stand up (with no pops or pings!) to harvest this mature 7 point. He was a 200lb (dressed) brute! My largest and oldest buck yet!

Your stand was one of my most valuable tools in harvesting this buck and no hunters arsenal is complete without this stand!  Thank You again!!!!
