BassPro Shop has several nice ones on sale. Another option would be wait until after hunting season and see if you can catch one on clearance at WalMart. We caught some nice AmeriStep climbers last year on clearance at WalMart for under $40 which is a steal.

Climbers normally range from $100 to around $250 but, whatever you get, make sure it is comfortable for you. I prefer cable climbers myself.

Give it a few days and we will get you some info on what are some good climbers and prices. Also, are you a "big guy" or normal sized? I have a friend that is 300+ that has some "big man" climbers and I can find out what exactly he has if needed.

Whatever type of climber you get, make sure you get a saftey harness and you use it.
