I'm in the process of trying to modify a tree climber so that I can pull the bottom part up with my arm strength and not my legs. (Any suggestions welcome) anyhow, we made a 4 wheeler path along a mile long beautiful ridge that's full of white oaks, red oaks and others. The bucks cruise up and down this ridge and it usually has a scrape line down it every year. Yes, this is the place that the guy sabotaged my ground blind and sent me to the hospital. I've just not had any luck with ground blinds around here and the ladder stands are not comfortable to me. You can get to the ridge from 4 different directions as not to get winded. Anyone got an idea on modifying the climber? .

Eye bolts??? Drill through the frame, attach eye bolts, to both top and bottom portions of the climber. Feed rope from top to bottom, pull on rope to bring bottom up????raydaughety wrote:I'm in the process of trying to modify a tree climber so that I can pull the bottom part up with my arm strength and not my legs.

God Bless,
Not sure how easy it would be to get the placement of the eye bolts just right. Could be done though.
If you have a big enough knot in the rope, the top and bottom shouldn't become seperated by any more than the length of the rope.
Just ideas off the top of my head.
You can take the man out of the woods but you can't take the woods out of the man.

I have nothing to add but to agree with what others have stated. A trail will be a benefit for you wildlife trail --- deer et al will use, access -- drag out your prize harvest or means for ease of firewood removal, life longevity --- your place to wander and allow the stresses of life to dissippate, A.T.V. or Argo run -- place to enjoy your vehicle of enjoyment with family and friends for camp outs with campfires and story telling.
ENJOY!!!
