Re: Lone Wolf and iowawhitetail.com any questions?
The biggest advantages of the Lone Wolf Climbers compared to the other designs on the market, is the quietness of the stands in transport, set-up, climbing, and of-coarse hunting. There is absolutely zero "clinking" or metallic noise with this stand. I've owned several tubular climbers, and I honestly don't know how guys can use them when trying to be stealth in the woods....
Rubber traction belts are the best design on the market, both quiet, and super-easy (and fast) to set-up. Also notice they carry the same 350 lb. weight rating as every-other Lone Wolf stand. Once in position they bit into a tree very well, and are very safe.
The Sit & Climb is the “comfortable” climbing stand that Lone Wolf offers. It is as comfortable as any other climber, yet still only weighs 17.5 lbs. Of all the “Sit and Climb” style climbers, it’s about the least complicated design I’ve ever seen.
If your a guy who wants to bring nothing more than necessary into the field, the Hand-Climber is tough to beat. At only 14.5 lbs, the thing is just as simple as it gets. This stand is a favorite among the Lone Wolf pro-staff, as it's the ticket for runnin' and gunnin' for trophy bucks! It set's up in about 30 seconds.
Also, both stands pack extremely well, at only 3.5" thick, you can sneak through the thickest, nastiest timber without making a sound. That's the Lone Wolf difference!
