So my son may be able to make it for deer hunting he is a USMC Sergeant . So it may be something that's like last minute I am looking for a really good comfortable two person ladder stand with the shooting rail animal 15 ft to 20 ft looking for recommendations

I've got a few made by Big Game and on a piece of land I'm fortunate to hunt, the owner bought several millennium 2 man stands…. Huge difference in price but both work great. The big game is not as comfortable but I'd good enough.

Whatever you decide, make sure the foot deck goes all the way back to the tree trunk. Otherwise, you may slip a foot/leg through or more than likely drop packs and etc. Just something I learned.

That's a good point. I store my pack under there when the rain clouds roll in.

If you are looking to have 2 people sit in it get a heavy duty one. The big game ones aren't really made for two adults in my opinion.

Millennium comes up a lot on archery talk as the best.

Just my opinion but a single seat ladder-stand is just about worthless. You need a double just to have enough room for your pack/gear and a little room to shift around for the odd angle shots that almost always present themselves. You need a place to prop your rifle up when you take a minute to yield to the call of nature.

If you want to put two adults in a ladder-stand, my advice would be to find the LARGEST stand out there.

Millennium would be my choice. Big game are priced better but not as comfortable and a little squeaky.
One thing to be familiar with is putting them up. It's best to have a second person for assistance because they are top heavy. Be sure to watch some YouTube videos and see some ingenious ideas to help make it easier. Be safe!

When my wife hunted with me, me and the gang put up a second stand.

Is this for you and your adult son, or just for him? Depending on your sizes, weight limit could be an issue. Sitting with my boys as 10/12 yr olds was one thing. Now, them as young adults, we'd stress out some welds.

It will be for 1 adult to sit in

Millennium. Buy once, cry once, and enjoy it for a long time knowing you won't be replacing it any time soon. Large and comfy, worth every penny IMO. But just don't look at price alone and keep in mind what it is you're going to do with it and how it will be used.
