I'm in need of a comfortable ladder stand that doesn't cost too much. I'm thinking in the 150 range. I need one with a gun rest that will fold or is removable for bow hunting. What brands do yall like?

I like the Hawk 20' Big Denali 1.5-Man. They are extremely comfortable, very solid and well designed and will run about $180 if you can find one.

Good looking stand, is the foot platform big enough to stand/turn for a bow shot?

There's is room to stand but not a lot of room to turn since the seat doesn't fold up like a lot of them. It is better for a gun or crossbow, imho.

I bought a riversedge lockdown bow pro. Really like its big platform and double stability bars

That Big Denali is really nice, plenty of room, I found some at Cabelas in Huntsville about 2 weeks ago.

Muddy or
Millennium

Sam's In Oxford had one of these on clearance for 160 last week

I prefer the X Stands now. They are the easiest to hang and are very comfortable

Outpost XL from Dicks,$150, are very big,comfy, and the seat fold up, but I know, I know they are on the banned list. Game winner from Academy are very comfy, $119

Yep. X stands are a carbon copy of the Muddy, but priced the same or less, and have more safety features, like locking jaws to the tree. The Duke model is 20' and about $175.
