I used Wild Edge Steps. 8-9 steps with an adjustable aider gets me higher than my Doyle's hoist will allow. So about 30' which is excessive anyways.
Sorry, you said sticks. But I'll leave it for posterity.

Saddle, straps, other related gear go in a backpack. Use 6 Lone Wolf mini's. Shoulder strap attached to sticks so they ride along my side. Do you use regular gun strap, or what kind?

One stick climbing method, platform is a OOAL Scout Angled mounted on the stick. I have two saddles that I made. One is a Flex copy the other is a transformer copy. I also bring rope to climb trees on afternoon set ups. I rappel down always. I pack the single stick on my little dagger eberlstock hydration pack

Runs 3 LW sticks and an aider to get about 18-20ft up. I use the top step of my lw stick and screw in a step as my platform, most of time I’m standing on a limb. That’s my scouting setup, almost shot a big 8 last weekend in no man’s land deep in the mountains. Toss my bow in my bow sling, the rest in my back pack and carry the sticks in, it’s about as low as I can get weight wise trying to hunt these big woods mountain deer.
We are not perfect, only forgiven!!!

Just now seeing this some how, but I use one I made out of an old ratchet strap (I just use it as an over the shoulder sling), but am in the process of upgrading to a gun strap. I am planning on using a self tapping screw to keep it secure to the stick.
