Big Dog BDL-3000 Stadium Series Dual

The seat pad is thin. The shooting rail is way too short. Shooting rail is not very steady either. the rest of the stand is sturdy. I would give it 3 stars. For the money we spent, should have been better quality shooting rail and padded seat.

Lots of pieces missing. Part of fault may be UPS, but the packaging was not adequate for such a large heavy item to stay together. I will be using it as a permanent stand and will use my welder to reinforce it and add what I want. Otherwise, it appears to be a roomy stand. I will also tack the expanded metal platform to the support bars as I think it will be noisy if I don't. The ladder should be sturdy, but platform will only be about 15 feet, so I will add about 4 feet to that for bowhunting height. If you don't have the resources to modify this stand some, be sure you inventory the parts before you start putting it together.
