I got a kick out of the post cause it reminded me of the first time I hung one. Figured out real quick hangin belts not only save yo ass but makes things easier. Also learned to hang the stand lower than your last step so your stepping down into the stand not stepping up. I've fallen 2 different times but one that Jakes talkin about was from @ 30 ft. Me, chopper, and sneaker were takin a stand down and I got to the last section ladder and the square tubbing broke. Next thing I know I'm wakin up and tryin to get air. Had my belt on just didn't have it hooked up. Half my face was peeled off but other than that I was fine. And lucky

Only issue I have had is with slack in the receivers and that has kinda gone away with experience. It is best to pick a soft bark tree instead of a slick one. The receivers are simple. If you cant figure it out read the manual. I am not being a smart booty.

Some of you guys could find anything to bitch about. These stands are the most comfortable loc ons on the market. No more complicated then any other to hang. This is a local co and even though they are proud of um they IMO are worth the money. If you don't care for um they sell ground blinds. Sorry bout the rant but just realized who's drivin the boat now. Wtf!!!!!

i agree that these stands are the most comfortable lock-ons on the market. when they first came out the link they came w/ to connect the chain was too small and mine broke w/ me in the stand. luckily had safety belt on b/c i was about 6 or 7 ladder sticks up. anyway, called an talked to the owner and he was very nice and said they had been sending out bigger links b/c of that problem. still use them and now put 2 tie down straps around stand for extra stability. also use the safety rope from bottom to top now.

love the stand though and recommend them.

For some reason the cam thing confuses folks. I dont know, never had any problems myself. I do, however, have a problem with the poison ivy i got all the way up both arms from hanging a set this weekend. $#!+ sucks!

By far the best on the market. I wishI could afford more. In about 2 years of me and my hunting crew buying em we will be set!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Nothing confusin bout the receivers but they do slip sometimes. Tdog, I already contacted him. I got dibs!! Dont guess it matters , we hunt the same stuff anyway!

I actually posted this email last year, before I lost my log on. I have since changed my opinion of the Millennium loc-on and now enjoy it, with the exception of the thought of the straps breaking......
