I decided to wait until the end of the season to write my review. Extremely happy with my purchase this is my first ladder stand and it exceeded all my expectations, great job Novix. Set up was very fast and easy, stand is dead quiet and easier in and out than all my other tree stands, at 66 years young you are extending my bow hunting life 👍. I was able to take the stand down on my own it is vey light and easy to disassemble and only took 2 trips to carry out to my vehicle. PS I was able to harvest 2 bucks this season both shot at 10 yards thanks again Novix. I highly recommend to anyone on the fence about purchasing this stand, it is worth every penny you will spend and there is nothing better out there. Looking forward to many more years of bow hunting with this stand.
Thanks again Novix,
Jim
Easy to put together, big platform, very well built. Just a solid stand !
Thank you, Roger!
The Raider ladder stand is unbelievable. It goes together so quick and it's so quiet and so light. I love it The seat is super comfortable I ordered on black Friday and received it the following Monday I set it up the next day at a new property I got recently and killed a huge doe an hour after I set it up Awsome stand
Thanks for a great review, Jeff! We love the Raider Ladder, too!
This is the best ladder stand that I have seen or had the pleasure of using in the field and is a solid non slip hunting platform.
Negatives
-The box that the stand arrived in was heavy duty but had been punctured and was coming apart when it was delivered.
-The stand is too heavy for one person to erect when all 4 sections are used for the 18’ height.
- It took 3 trips for me to hall all of the parts to the tree for assembly, unfortunately the stand is not designed to be backpacked in.
Thanks for a detailed review, Roy! We appreciate your feedback and will pass it along, too.
This is the first of its kind. Well thought out design. Easy to get into the woods and easy to set into place. I will be ordering more.
Thanks, Dewie—we appreciate you!
