I gave up building my stands and have gone to the store-bought ladder stands, they are 17'. I also have a couple of pop-up blinds that I really like. The trees where I hunt don't work well for climbers, and I don't like hanging stands. I did have one instance last year when I was winded while in a blind, but I was not going to shoot him anyway.
