Favorite ladder stand

[bwoods11]

I don’t know the answer in ladder stands that do not squeak, pop, or make some kind of noise.

I’m guessing I’ve had 3 bucks peg me in the stand due to that over the years. I’ve tried to add gorilla tape & foam padding in certain spots… it helps. Not a guarantee though!

I've thought about spraying the pieces that slide together with that rubberized spray paint. Just not sure about getting them together then. I've tried taping those pieces. Makes it tough to get them together that way too. Nothing worse than climbing a stand on a crisp morning before dark and nothing but creak and crack.
