Summit Treestands Goliath SD Climbing Treestand, Mossy Oak

Lots of room in the tree and comfortable

Amazing stand for a big man. Well worth it to get up high and feel secure.

I got the Goliath. I love this stand. Quiet and light. Seems heavy duty and sturdy. I’m very happy with the stand. The stand is straight forward for assembly. But the instructions are crap. Watch the YouTube video. The bungies on this new style summit concern me as they double as a seat back rest holder to a tree and they hold your stand together when transporting the stand backpack style. Seems like the bungies May wear out sooner than I would hope. The “teather” that holds the top platform to the bottom platform (to keep you from losing bottom while in tree) seems cheap. I’ll probably replace with better rope. Overall- great product. Absolutely recommend it. Aside from a cheap teather and possibly weak bungies - this thing is very heavy duty and quiet. I’m new to the stirrup design and I question the longevity of the plastic. They make cloning the tree easy. I hated dealing with the older webbing and getting my stiff boot inside. The stirrup is much faster. As another reviewer mentioned - the padding does not wrap all the way around like it used to. Now I’ll hve to get that foam pipe insulation and tape it on- to protect my gun from getting beat up.

Best stand I’ve purchased, good quiet stand and by far more comfortable than any of my other ladder or hang on stands. easy to pack into the timber and set up anytime. Sturdy and very safe has sharp teeth to dig in and keep you secured.

I really like it so far. Not sure why you have to buy a foot rest separately. I would think for the price they that it would be included. I’ll report back after this years hunting season. Used it in the field . It is by far the most comfortable seat I’ve ever hunted in. The foot rest purchase is a must. I also like the extra room a Goliath stand gives. I’m 5’10” about 165lbs. It takes some getting use to on the foot legs for climbing. Overall very happy.

Overall if you want a "climber" and don't mind the weight of this thing, it's good. I weigh 280lbs but I'm athletic (played fb in college) and I have no issues climbing in this thing and sitting in it is comfortable. I've been up 30 feet but mostly stayed 15-18 feet up. I returned it b/c its just too damn loud to climb a tree in the morning w/o letting the entire hillside know where you are. I tested and played with my climbing style literally on dozens of tree types and its just nothing like having a ladder system. Also, the thing is heavy. Doesn't seem heavy when you see the weight in the description but when you add your gear, you're carrying 35 to 50 lbs on your back if you carry a backpack like me. Returned it but I just can't see myself every using this to hunt big deer in Texas.

I did a lot of read up on different climbers before purchasing. I settled on the Summit Goliath as I wanted something to conform to bigger guys as I'm a big hunter. Set up is a breeze and vary easy to carry through the woods on long hikes in! Climbing was extremely simple and this stand makes virtually no noise what so while climing. Summit Goliath is ROCK SOLID once your in it and at desired height in the tree, didnt move, shake, sway, creek, bend, or any other while in the tree. You almost don't need to where your harness although, you would be foolish not to. Very happy with this purchase and it will be with me for every hunt! Any bow hunter who hasn't used or owned a climber I highly recommend purchasing one and you can't go wrong with Summit! Only added benefit I can think of is extending the platform out another 2 to 3 inches for more leg room when you sit.

Easy tonuse very good quaility

I typically don't hunt out of treestands, but wanted something I could use in a multitude of locations. Have used a few dozen times since getting, find its light to pack, quick to set up and after seeing a couple videos online figured out the climbing so that it's not nearly as physically tasking.

Es ligera, fácil de transportar y fácil de usar. Una herramienta útil para cazadores que acechan a sus presas.

Felt safe for a first time tree stand hunter. Make sure you wear a harness. limited angle of shooting I guess that's normal being used to a traditional tree stand. Kinda big trekking through the woods, however makes up for being able to change your location. ++ taged my deer. Highly recommended it.

One of the beast tree stand on the market
