Thanks Jim,
I had no idea about mid-west trees being “all” harder and always wondered why those jokers on tv always picked the hardest tree on the planet to hunt from. Now I know they mostly all are hard. No wonder. I’ve never been there hunting and didn’t notice hardness when I was there for storm damage. Good luck on your Illinois hunts and thank you so much.
I hunt northern Missouri. I haven't found a tree that I could climb with my climber.I use ladder stands and find I can have a tree stand in most areas without using tree steps and hanging stands.(Most will not carry my weight when I add all my things I carry for a all day sit.)
