Bob,
I wish to thank you and your company for producing excellent quality hunting products. I have been using one of your tripod 17 ft stands for 20 years this season. I bought it new and directly from your plant there in Henderson. I was also given a tour all those years ago and shown the making of your products. I was very impressed at the time for I was a man in his twenties and just really beginning to hunt the central and west Texas areas of our state. I am still using that tripod stand and it is still in good shape. I will say the wind over the years had played havoc a couple of times and it has hit the ground twice but it was only slightly bent and as I said before it is still in service and will be used again this year. I am not as young as i once was and now enjoy comfort more and like being in out of the weather and enjoy use of an inclosed fiberglass stand with windows and a propane heater, however that is my bad weather stand and i still usually use my sturdy Realbark tripod most days and cannot tell you in this letter how many nice bucks have met their match from the heights and sturdiness of this stand.
I now am going to purchase a top and side for this tripod as i believe they will help me to enjoy another 20 years with my sturdy Realbark hunting system. Thank you, and I hope your quality never ceases and I as a hunter thank you for a well constructed , well worth the money product that has brought myself and my stepson allot of good years in its use.
Thank you,
Jimmy Malone
