2 man ladder stands

Anyone use these. I wanted some opinions on comfort, safety, etc. I would rather go with one of these than building yet another wooden one. Thanks.

Got a few of the game winner ones. Can't remember the other brands. Most of what we hunt out of are 2 man ladders.

Pros/cons?
Posted on 3/2/12 at 9:32 pm to Me4Heisman
no cons.. there are some that are too short from foot platform to seat platform.. make sure you're knees are not having to bend too much.. that kills my old arse worn out knees..

What's your price range? I have a couple of the $100 2 mans from Academy and they are not a joy to sit on for more than an hour or so.
eta: problems are the seat is kind of narrow, the pads suck, shooting rail is kind of low... Honestly, they feel built for 2 midgets, rather than 2 normal people, but I guess you could cram 2 people in there.

I have a few of the cheaper ones one from acadamy and two from cabelas. Biggest con is seat is too low in relation to the foot platform. Need to find some way to raise the seat height to make it comfortable

I have a few that are locally built but they are comfortable have bus seats in them the only drawback I can think of is the weight when setting up. Me and my 9 year old sit it is comfortable.

I have 2 Big GameTree Partner Plus stands.
Spend the money and get one. You're gonna need help raising it up though. Its the bees knees

I really dont have any complaints with mine. Seat padding adequate but I dont sit all day. Rail flips up and seat bottom flips up too.

I use a several 2 man ladders for me and me only. I'm 6'-2" tall and weigh 220 pounds. I'm no fatass by any means, but can't sit in a 1 man ladder for any period of time.
The 2 man stands are a bitch to put up alone, but gets your blood pumping when you do!

Game Winner from Academy. You can get them on sale for $90. Best value IMO.

Which one do you have?

They beat the shite outta building one. Very easy to put up, relatively easy to carry, and they last a long timr.
The ratchet strap should be changed each year though.

I linked it, the Partner Plus. I bought it because it had a 500lb weight capacity. A couple of years ago I was 300+ and my BIL was close to 300 and we fit in it. Now that I'm down over 60 lbs and almost normal sized its REALLY roomy.

I'm only 5'7" so my feet don't comfortably reach the floor in some stands, and that sucks.

couple of telephone books in a trash bag, or a cinder block..

Or just get a length of chain, couple s hooks and a turnbuckle. That's what we've done to most of them.
