Abstract

The tree stand and climbing stick system of an embodiment of the present invention allows for a user to assemble sticks, install onto a tree, then use a swing-arm on the sticks, as an improved means for safely and securely installing your tree stand while in the tree. The stand has a simple female receiver which installs on a male fitting on the swing-arm. Once installed on the swing-arm, the user can then have both hands free to connect the straps to the tree. No one has used climbing sticks as a method to improve the user experience for hanging a lock on tree stand.
