Yessir, that's the Millennium. At first I thought I screwed up, thought it was way too short, which it is. Set it up and hunted in it and killed a doe at 18 yards that was completely oblivious to my presence, must have been tall enough for her. It wasn't terribly easy to carry for the initial 1.5 miles, especially due to me going slow being quiet with my bow and pack too, but it wasn't that hard either. I bought a 2nd one used here on the classifieds for a good discount so I can have two stands depending on wind or morning/evening, or for the wife to use. Where I hunt you can't leave the stands more than a few days so they need to be light enough to carry frequently.

Sorry, just saw I never replied to this. I have tied a short length of rope to the end, wrap around the tree and loop on itself. When i get to the top step, I put all my weight on the saddle and shimmy my etrier loop up...rinse and repeat. You can see it in this pic.

I bought some hawk combat stands and I can not get comfortable in them. The only place where it will bite the tree is at the top and I can’t get them to sit right. They haven’t beat the old faithful climber yet, which I can get up a tree and hunting in under 10 minutes. Last time I got in the tree I think it took me 7. Thinking about trying out a saddle.
