Who is using nails or screws in a tree?

“I’m all for realism in the field—but if I’ve got a tool that steadies my shot and ups my odds for a clean harvest, I’ll use it every time.”

The base looks like it has screw holes drilled in it and the name implies doing so . I think i would screw it down on a 2x6 and park my truck on the other end

I will explain how it was mounted, also you're not going to get a truck up there, I use a 4 wheeler

• Base prep: Cut and fitted 2×4 cross‑pieces to span the stand’s side rails, giving me a wide, level platform for the TREEpod base.
• Vibration control: Sandwiched a layer of closed‑cell foam between the wood and the stand frame to absorb shock and cut down on noise transfer.
• Bolt layout: Used stainless bolts with fender washers for even pressure, tightened just enough to lock it down without crushing the foam.
• Positioning: Mounted the pod slightly forward and offset to my strong side, so I can swing a clean 180° without shifting in the seat.
• Final check: Made sure all hardware was snug, then cycled the TREEpod through its range of motion to confirm no pinch points or interference.

The result is a secure, vibration‑dampened mount that feels natural in the field but still delivers the precision of a bench rest — exactly what I was aiming for.
No screws.

If that had a front elevation adjustment that would be just about perfect.. Something like a miniature car jack or "high helix" screw or rack and pinion..
