Now that I've got to use he Open Shot some I've discovered it just aint gonna work for me.

It is a great stand, easy to set up and climb with. But, I have a lower back problem that acts up if I'm setting very long on a seat that is not comfortable for me.
I should have went with the Summit Cobra since it has the sling type seat.
I had the Cobra years ago but sold it 10 yrs ago because I hardly ever used it.
I hate it but that's the reality of it. Nothing wrong with the stand, just a physical thing with me personally.

Think I will just stay on the ground.
