Summit Archery Summit Goliath SD Climbing Treestand Reviews

Summit quality

I have owned 4 Summit climbers over the years and I’m a little disappointed with the Goliath. Mostly my fault for not researching the stand a little better but if you put the 6 rung platform on the Goliath it would be my favorite. Of the stands I have owned ( viper,titan,180 max, Goliath) the Titan is the most comfortable. The drawback on it and 180 max is the weight. The Goliath is a Viper on steroids as advertised, only difference I see is a 2 inch wider seat. Still an excellent stand with industry known Summit quality.

Be thorough with your research as these stands have increased in price significantly

I've had my summit for over 15yrs and is as good as the day I bought it fantastic stand.

This is the only tree stand I’ve ever had and it works great! I’ve been using it for the past 4 years and have had no complaints, super strong and lightweight. Very comfortable, and the model is the perfect size!

Just purchased my second Goliath. Great stand, great company. Can’t wait to break it in.

This is my second Goliath and I have had multiple Summits. I love them all.

I purchased my viper 20 years ago. Still hunt out of it today. I’ve replaced the seat a few times and the cables once. Summit is the best climber on market period.

Third time I used this stand I had the upper half slide six inches down the tree after sitting for about an hour. Wasn't a good feeling! The seat is too deep for a bow hunter making sitting shots almost impossible. The stand does a lot of damage to the tree which can be a fine on national forest land! Stand was made for the bigger person but the supplied harness is for a child. I would give it a lower score but I don't see any negative stars!

Over 30 years of tree stand hunting I have 5 climbing stands i collected over the years. The golith is big and comfortable and you really have a safe feeling when climbing and sitting. The seat is really plush and comfortable , 8 hours of sitting not a problem. My other stands are lighter then this but in this stand you feel really secure. Would I recommend it yes......

Ive had this stand since october of 2017 first year i used the stock backpack straps after that i added a molle pack frame shoulder straps and waist belt attached with lashing straps it dont move and is very secure i put on stabalizer straps and u tighten those once ur fully in the tree at height and the stand is rock solid this stand is very comfy is quiet to set up easy quick and have sat many dark to dark sits in this and have taken several hour or longer naps in this very comfy its easy for me to shoot a compound out of this and rifles and have got many deer out of this stand glad i got it when i did

I don’t understand why with a stand called the Goliath, the safety system is child size. I couldn’t put my arms down once I put them in it so I took it off and put it on my 9 year old and it got him perfectly. Im only 6’1 and the leg straps barely went down to my waist. The the stand is amazing. I can sit in it all day long, but not safely. I just ordered your Summit pro safety harness so HOPEFULLY our a little bigger than this one.
