About Beagle Tree Stands Used for Hunting

Many hunters employ the use of tree stands.

Tree stands help a hunter to stay out of sight of their prey. A tree stand also provides the hunter with a good visual vantage point to find their prey.

Basic Shape

Beagle tree stands are basically small metal platforms with a small, padded seat that attach to trees. The stand allows the hunter to sit or stand on the side of any tree that the stand's straps can fit around.

Attachment Method

Beagle tree stands attach to trees using a strap and ratchet system. Two straps wrap around the tree, one at the top of the stand and one at the bottom. Each strap has a rachet to quickly tighten it around tree.

Load Capacity

The Beagle Big Dog II tree stand can hold up to 300 pounds on a 20-inch by 25-inch square shaped platform. The padded seat is 14 inches by 8 inches and can be folded up.
