Ol’Man AlumaLite CTS and FPS Treestands
OutdoorHub 03.24.13
Ol’Man has been creating treestands you’ve come to rely on for 23 years. Its new line of AlumaLite stands, including climbing stands and a fixed stand, incorporate classic features with new technology to bring a new face to Ol’Man Outdoors.
The AlumaLite Series stands integrate some standard features that the original Ol’Man stands include, such as pivoting spreader arms and ComforTech seating, on the climbing stand. But Ol’Man made some great improvements to both the climbing and fixed stand as well, such as adding new oval tubing and a new, improved cable system, making the stands super easy to setup.
The AlumaLite CTS climbing stands are made from aluminum to provide the lightest and sturdiest treestand available. The stands fold up, compact and secure, and are easily carried into the field. Once unfolded, the new oval tubing and cable system makes installation a breeze. Tubing-style foot straps are also included on the sturdy, 18- by 32-inch standing platform. The smoke grey COM-13 model weighs only 21 pounds and sports a 21-inch-wide seat, while the black COM-27 model weighs 23 pounds and has a 24-inch-wide seat.
The AlumaLite FPS fixed-position stand is the first aluminum fixed stand that Ol’Man has created. Aluminum means lightweight, especially for this stand – it weighs only 14 pounds. It packs up effortlessly and is setup easily with the new oval tubing. It features a 9- by 14-inch fold-up cushioned seat for long stays in the field, and the 21- by 30-inch standing platform creates a sturdy surface to stand on as well.
With many options to choose from, an Ol’Man AlumaLite stand definitely has something to offer everyone. Instead of lugging a heavy treestand with you on your next hunt, make it easy on yourself and pick up a sturdy, lightweight AlumaLite treestand.
