Thinking about buying one of these for the deer stand. Anybody ever use one?

mine isn't tall enough for any windows I've got in any of my stands.

I use one in my pop up blind for my crossbow. It works great. Be careful folding it up as I broke one of the tubes on the stock rest. I got a replacement tube assembly from caldwell and the replacement was actually pretty cheap.

Won't work in my blinds but very useful coyote hunting

Use it in my pop ups. Works fantastic. Shot a doe at 200 or so off of one last month.

I use mine for hunting out of a brush blind I built on a wheat field and it works great. I would feel comfortable using it to take shots out to 250 yards, which is much further than I would normally take a shot, but the device keeps the gun extremely stable.

They just came out with the MAX, which is 6” taller than the standard. I really like mine.

they work great! Used one this past Thursday hunting and took down a doe at 150 yards with ease! I highly recommend it for a steady shooting platform in the field

I have one in all my stands. I don't know why the other guys are saying they wont' work. I have regular dillon fiberglass blinds, and they will work in that height of a window

My 6 year old grandson uses one in various box blinds they have set up on his grand mom's place. Just this year he started using a bean bag as he finally got tall enough!

We use them in pop up blinds. I've used mine just sitting up on a hill too. Haven't tried it in a box stand as ours have shelves and bean bags.
