This made hanging my Air Raid stand much easier. I wish these had been available last year when I purchased the stand! No more struggling to support yourself + the weight of the stand while fumbling with straps/buckles/etc. Just climb up and strap the bracket onto the tree, pull your stand up, and slide it into the bracket. Then you're free to add all the straps you want to while the bracket holds the stand for you. Simple, convenient, and effective!

Makes setting my stand quick and safe. Fits in my pocket while I climb the tree and can hang my stand basically with one hand. I have a few That I leave in trees I frequently hunt for convenience

This bracket makes set up time so much faster and easier. It’s a little bit heavy.

It works great, my only issue is it is slick against the tree and it is a little loud. I wish it had sharp teeth on the back to dig into the tree better. It does make hanging your treestand a breeze as you aren't fighting the tree stand while hanging it. If you take your time with it you can be somewhat quiet, but it is loud when putting it the stand into it. I will probably spray it with some liquid rubber to quiet it down.

These are sweet little brackets that I love to have in my pack. The XOP stand and sticks are great for chasing mature Whitetails and make me so much more mobile. These brackets are another key item to have if you have multiple spots that need a stand this is a great fix for a budget.

Works well, not as light as I'd hoped

I really like this due to the ease of hanging the treestand. I have been hunting the "hang n hunt" style for the last 6 seasons with a Summit that has the talon bracket. This is better because you have 3 slots to choose from. You are able to hang level on a crooked tree. No hanging on to the stand while trying to strap it on.I recommend using the bottom strap to make it more stable. This will add approximately 1 lb +/- to your setup, but well worth it.

This is certainly an awesome way to make hanging a tree stand easier. However the engineers need to find a way to minimize the potential for metal and metal contact out in the woods. Even if it makes hanging a stand easier if you have a chance of clunking metal on metal you might as well not go out.
