It’s nice for mobile in and out, different tree every day. But for preset full size lock on stands the advantage is minimal IMO. It can definitely be more comfortable but not until you use it enough to get comfortable with your tether height, bridge length and so on. Everybody’s body is shaped...
One thing you have going for you as a guy with no hunters in your family or mentors is open mindedness. I think sometimes we can have bad habits passed on. Some of the very best hunters are self taught.
Hey another MD guy here. I’m new to rokslide also. Public land in MD is just like anywhere really. There’s pressure on every property and half the battle is patterning the other hunters. People are creatures of habit though. They are usually easier to figure out than the deer.
Numbers vary...
