How many steps do I need on my aider?

Every hunter is different when it comes to this. A person’s height and climbing style as well as desired stand height will determine which aider best suits your needs. Saddle hunters one-sticking may want to utilize the 3-step aider to get higher quicker, while someone who is just looking for a little extra may lean towards the 1 step.
