How to Use JX3 Climbing Sticks
Getting up a tree shouldn't feel like a workout before the hunt even starts. JX3 Climbing Sticks make the climb simple, quiet, and secure, exactly what you need when you're trying to slip into position without spooking every deer in the county.
Each JX3 Climbing Stick measures 22 inches in overall length with 18 inches between steps and a 9-inch width. At just 2.3 pounds per stick, they're light enough to pack deep into public land without wearing you out. The reinforced aluminum construction holds up to 300 pounds, so you can climb with confidence knowing your gear won't let you down.
The rope cleat attachment system is where these sticks really shine. Wrap the pre-attached rope around your tree, cinch it tight on the cleat, and you're locked in. No loud ratchet straps clicking through the woods, no fumbling with complicated mechanisms in low light. Just a fast, quiet setup that gets you hunting sooner.
When you're done, the stackable design lets you bundle them together for a compact pack-out. They nest cleanly against each other, which cuts down on noise and bulk during your hike. The slip-resistant powder coating keeps your boots planted on the steps, even when morning frost or light rain makes things slick.
For hunters who prefer the one-stick method, a single JX3 Climbing Stick paired with the Wide Angled Top Mount Step gives you everything you need to reach your hunting height efficiently. If you run a traditional multi-stick setup, the 4-pack provides plenty of reach with the wide top step included.
How to Use Climbing Sticks with Your Hybrid/Other JX3 Products
JX3 Climbing Sticks were designed from the ground up to work seamlessly with the JX3 Hybrid hunting saddle. The contoured shape fits perfectly against the Hybrid's frame, so when you strap your sticks to your saddle, everything packs together as one tight, quiet unit. No rattling, no shifting, no extra straps needed.
This integrated system means less time rigging gear and more time scouting your next setup. When you reach your tree, pull the sticks off the Hybrid, set the first one or two sticks, and climb setting them as you go. The Wide Angled Top Mount Step attaches to your top climbing stick with included hardware, creating a stable platform for maneuvering around the tree while saddle hunting. It angles slightly to give your feet a natural resting position and enough room to work the tree for 360-degree shot opportunities.
Even if you're not running a JX3 Hybrid, these climbing sticks work with any mobile hunting setup, treestands, other saddle systems, or whatever method gets you in the tree.
Why Hunters Choose JX3 Climbing Sticks
Mobile hunters need gear that performs without added hassle. JX3 Climbing Sticks deliver where it counts: they're stable on the tree, comfortable underfoot, and fast to set up. The smooth, contoured rungs are easy on your hands during the climb, with no sharp edges catching your gloves or digging into your palms.
The 300-pound weight rating handles hunters of all sizes plus gear weight. Whether you're hauling a full pack into public land or running light on a quick evening sit, these sticks stay planted. The reinforced aluminum won't flex or wobble, which matters when you're 20 feet up and need to make a shot.
Hunters who've tried other brands notice the difference. The rope cleat system is faster and quieter than ratchet straps. The stackable design packs tighter than most competitors. And the JX3 Hybrid integration turns your whole setup into one streamlined package.
Built right here with the mobile hunter in mind, JX3 Climbing Sticks are designed to make your time in the tree safer and more productive.
