Millennium Treestands M102S CamLock Receiver

Deer hunting

This stand by far is the most comfortable stand that I have ever sat in and I've had every brand out there. Unlike the hawk stands they have though of every detail right down to the little straps that hold the seat up. the hawk seat is always falling down and I cant stand that. I sat all day everyday great stand!

I like the chain bracket better, this is easier to secure to the tree and remove from the tree but it stretches a little bit so there is a bit of a bounce to the stand when you are on it. It still feels safe, but I don't see it lasting as long plus it's more apt to fail than the chain.

This is the second buckle I have replaced for my Millennium hang on stand. The original chain and C-Clamp style buckles were incredibly difficult to adjust while putting up your climbing sticks. This buckle/strap is very easy to operate and when you synch it to the tree, it does not slide down like the old chain one. The only draw back may be the material not lasting as long as the metal chains, but that is yet to be seen because I have only used them now for 2 seasons and just ordered this one as an additional bracket so I can use my seat in multiple stand locations without having to move the buckle every time.

The Camlock ratcheting strap is a great feature of the Millennium tree stand for deer hunting. I am able to set up two different trees with cheap climbing sticks and the Camlock ratcheting straps. In the early morning I walk in, hang my stand, and sit for half a day. If there is no activity, I can easily change locations and move to my other tree for the afternoon/evening hunting period.

To me, so much easier to set up than fighting with the heavier chain. I hunt solo, so when I'm 30 ft in the air, I need every advantage, and this ratchet style is much easier for me to deal with than the chain bracket while hanging in the air with a lineman's belt. Much easier to set up and take down.

Makes hanging and securing your millennium treestand a breeze. Tightens down right and keeps the stand in place. Takes out a lot of squeaks that most treestands have when used without the adapter. I weight 260 pounds and never felt uncomfortable using the adapter, once you cinch it down it’s not going to slip down the tree.

I have been using cheaper stands, Then decided to spring for the M150 and two extra ratchet straps. It REALLY makes putting up your stand SO MUCH EASIER to have this type of setup. At one new location after putting up my stand I realized it was facing the wrong way - with the extra strap I was simply able to lift the treestand out of one and put it into the other. The M150 plus the extra straps is the way to go! I sit in my other stands now and think OMG this is TERRIBLE! :-)
