Try the Iron Talon. Worked perfectly with a smidgeon of tweaks for my ladder stands. Good luck!

I made a hanger out of metal put a light strap through it and strap it to the tree above my head. I hang my crossbow by the sturrup.

Which summit do you use? I simply lay my crossbow across the front rest on my Summit Viper and it works fine.

You could make a simple wood block bracket, let forstock rest on front bar of stand then cut wood notch wide enuff fer back top of stock to be inside wood. Makeit so the weight of Bow is out front and it pushes up from back. I never made one but i have saw them made, i use a short piece of rope tie mine off quick & stand up fer a rest or to look thru my pack, or to use the water draining bottle! I have saw some ppl. use those rifle brackets modified to fit

If you have a sling, you can use a zip tie small  loop at bottom stud ring and hang from your little hook brackets  you have wired or zip tied to either side of your stand. Works great for rifles and backpack as well

I just use a climbing spike one for my quiver and pack and one for the bow when I need my hands for something else.

My cross bow holder for my treestand works great.... the problem is I bought a $78 dollar ladder stand at Walmart which is perfectly designed for a child of 5 or 6 and if you're 47, 5 ft 11, 260 pound wearing cold weather gear, turkey suit, extra cushion, thermos, 14 pounds of unnecessary hunting junk and toting a 10 pound crossbow - you tend to more "put on" the stand as oppossed to sitting in it. But as for the bow holder.... that'd be my left hand looped through the shooting rail, under the turkey suit strap, tangled in the hunter safety vest combined with my right arm (which is by then numb) tangled in the duffel bag strap, turkey suit right strap, shooting rail and then of course I top that off with being completely entangled in 12 feet of burlap material for the blind around my stand.

Don't have it but it looks interesting. The way it attaches keeps it from unscrewing in the tree when you move it to the "wrong" side.  I have been using their standard bow holder. This just has a forked end.
