Weight Capacity: 300 lbs Gross Weight: 66 lbs Frame Material: Steel Safety: Trophy JAW Safety System   Description   The Strike Eagle was built for hunters who want a serious vantage point without dragging a 100 plus pound stand through the timber. At 18 feet tall with three stackable ladder sections, it goes up clean and locks onto the tree with the Trophy JAW Safety System, a clamp design that grips the trunk and keeps the stand from twisting or shifting when the wind picks up. The whole frame is welded steel, so once it's set and strapped, it just stays put.   Up top you get a 17 in. wide by 28 in. deep platform, which is genuinely roomy for a single person stand. The seat measures 17 in. by 15 in. with a 14 in. padded backrest, and when a deer slips in close and you need to stand for the shot, the seat flips up out of your way. The adjustable shooting rail is padded for quiet contact and gives gun hunters a rock solid rest, while bowhunters can drop or pivot around it when it's time to draw.   With a 300 lb capacity and a gross weight of just 66 lbs, the Strike Eagle hits a sweet spot. It's tough enough for a fully kitted hunter with a heavy pack, but light enough that you and a buddy can carry it back to that new pinch point you found scouting last weekend. Pair it with a quality safety harness and a lifeline, and you've got a setup that'll outlast the truck you hauled it in on.   Check Out The Full Lineup Of Trophy Treestands Gear   Trophy Treestands Hunting Gear   Why Hunters Love It   Ask any hunter what kills more deer hunts than bad wind, and they'll tell you it's a stand that squeaks, wobbles, or makes your back ache by 9 AM. The Strike Eagle solves all three. The padded shooting rail and armrests turn long sits into something you'll actually finish, and the flip up seat lets you transition from sitting to standing without bumping anything metal at the worst possible moment.   It's also the kind of stand that earns trust the second time you climb it. Set it in October, leave it through gun season, come back next fall, and it still feels solid. That's exactly what we look for when we recommend gear, and it's why the Strike Eagle has been a steady seller for us here at Outdoors For Less.   Frequently Asked Questions   How tall is the Strike Eagle ladderstand? The Strike Eagle stands 18 feet tall to the platform, built from three stackable ladder sections. That height puts you above the typical line of sight for whitetails and helps keep your scent above ground level traffic.   What is the weight capacity of the Strike Eagle? It's rated for 300 lbs, which covers a fully outfitted hunter, heavy clothing, a pack, and your weapon of choice. Always wear a full body harness and use a lifeline regardless of stand rating.   Can I bowhunt from the Strike Eagle? Yes. The 17 in. by 28 in. platform gives you room to stand and pivot, and the flip up seat clears space for a full draw. The shooting rail is adjustable, so you can move it out of the way for archery shots.   How much does the stand weigh for setup? The Strike Eagle has a gross weight of 66 lbs. It's a manageable two person carry into the woods, and two hunters can have it up the tree and strapped in well under an hour.   What is the Trophy JAW Safety System? It's a clamp style attachment that wraps and grips the tree at the top of the stand. It locks the stand against the trunk to reduce shifting and twisting, which is a common complaint with cheaper ladderstands.   Does the Strike Eagle come with a safety harness? A basic harness is typically included with new ladderstands per industry standards, but we strongly recommend investing in a quality full body harness and a lifeline system for climbing up and down. Most stand accidents happen during the climb, not while seated.   Can one person set this stand up alone? It's possible, but we don't recommend it. Two people make assembly safer and quicker, especially when raising the stand against the tree and tightening the ratchet straps. Grab a hunting buddy and knock it out together.
