2. Banks The Stump 4 Limited Edition
The Stump 4 Limited Edition by Banks offers a 360-degree view and a heavy-duty, steel-plate base. It boasts eight silent-swinging framed windows that create the ultimate panoramic view in all directions. It has more than 30 square feet of room, and the round design makes it perfect for bowhunters. It’s also extremely durable thanks to UV-stabilized polyethylene construction. It also has a paintable, bark-like texture that’s weather-resistant. The windows open silently, seal tight, and help contain scent. It’s plenty roomy, with a 77-inch diameter and 80-inch interior height. The door is 26 by 54 inches. The blind has three 14-by-22-inch windows and five 34-by-14-inch windows.

3. Hawk Ultra-Lite Climber
The Hawk Ultra-Lite Climber is loaded with advantages, including a low-profile arm rest and a large, hammock-style mesh seat. Furthermore, those who want a bowhunting-centric stand often prefer low-profile arm rests. This provides the least distance between the seat frame and the arm rest rise. I like this because it makes it easier to shoot sitting down, because the railing isn’t as high to get in the way of a bow. Other key features include a 300-pound weight capacity, 20-inch-by-27-inch platform, 8-inch minimum, 20-inch maximum tree size, and 20-inch weight. In addition to the features outlined above, this treestand has what bowhunters need. It’s large enough to keep you comfortable, but small enough to be more compact than a lot of the competition on the market. At 20 pounds, it’s heavier than some, but lighter than others. Still, this climbing treestand gets the job done.
MSRP: $399.99

This is very good technology that improves visibility, which is one of the primary issues hunters have with blinds — as well as limited shot opportunities, which this blind also accounts for. It even has ozone loft pockets.
