M-100 Millennium Treestand by Hunting Solutions
Ladder stands, although sturdy and easily positioned at most any location, are not only bulky and heavy, but more importantly often recognized and avoided by mature bucks. Climbing stands eliminate this recognition hurdle, but these heavy, awkward and noisy stands force hunters to set up on perfectly smooth trees, which may or may not be in prime locations. To truly capture trophy bucks, today’s hunters need a stand which offers the benefits of both without the downfalls of either. It’s time for a change… It’s time for The New Millennium.
On Target- I’m sure you’ve come across a product or feature on a product and thought to yourself, “Why didn’t I think of that.” Well, the Millennium M-100 treestand comes with a lot of those features. I recently got to try out a Millennium stand and although not the cheapest on the market their definitely worth every penny. Their patented Cam-Lock Receiver makes hanging a breeze, the sling seat is one of the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in, and the coolest thing is the bungee straps that keep the stand folded securely while transporting and hanging. “Why didn’t I think of that?”
I am not bias on any products I critique. I treat them all the same. But, I do sometimes come across a product that stands out. This stand is one of those products that stand out. It’s all you want in a stand: Quite, easy, lightweight, and comfortable.
Off Target- OK, what I don’t get is this, You put tons of great innovative work in the stand and forgot about the most important part, the chain. I mean this is what keeps my stand from falling as well as the ugly guy sitting in it. First looking at the chain I see it being short. I’m not going to get this stand in any really big trees. Second, I would of like to see it have a rubber coating to somewhat dampen the clanging chain noise, and third is the small snap hook. Now, I’m not a big man but I still would like to see a more manly snap hook securing me to the tree. Other than that the stand is rock solid and will make many trips with me. I do recommend throwing a ratchet strap around the gig just for reinforcement.
If comfortable is a major concern of yours than I suggest you pack a Millennium on your back. Check them out at: www.huntingsolutionsusa.com
Kind of expensive. Look comfortable though. I kind of wish the seat didn’t stick out so far.
First off “Go SOONERS!” Secondly, Keep the off targets coming. LOVE EM!

Sorry about your sooners. I love my Millenium.
I don’t know how you gave this a B+. I have one and it is definitely an A++. It is light (more or less the lightest hang on you can buy), easy to set up, super comfortable, and has the biggest platform you can buy.
The only thing that could make this better is if the seat mesh was replacable so you don’t have to replace the whole stand if the mesh rips.
