As its name implies, Bowling's Last
Stand may indeed be the last
Christmas Tree Stand you'll ever
need to purchase.
Created and manufactured by Floyd
Bowling Jr and Sr, both of Bear Lake,
Michigan, the stand is constructed of
steel and unlike any stand on the
market today.

Bowling's started manufacturing
Bowling's Last Stand in December
1989. They came up with the idea
when trying to think of new ways to
supplement their farm income. Using
materials they had handy, the
Bowling's created a prototype design
in a matter of hours. They patented
the design soon after, and then took
to the streets to market their product.
The stand is relatively unchanged
today, except for a few minor
improvements, and remains a simple,
quality piece, which literally sells
itself.

hands!...Thanks for a delightful, useful,
