Default Quiet Stand?

I am looking into getting 2-3 new stands for this upcoming season.

I currently have a Gorilla King Kong Lounger and like it alot, but on cold days it seems to pop and creek a little when I stand up or anything like that.

I was thinkin of looking into Lone Wolf or something similar, prices are high, that is what has kept me back so far. Thanks for any input guys/gals.

Lock on, Lone Wolf or API. For a climber, LoneWolf or Summit, IMO.

Not sure about everyone else's experiences, but my Summit Viper SS has yet to make the slightest sound during a hunt. It's really quiet going up and down the tree also.

Make your own wooden stand, they work the best IMO.

Lone wolf will be the top for silence. I was sceptical myself until i saw them at a show and then WOW.

Not very practical where I am...don't think the farmer wants me putting stands up everywhere.

Lone Wolf is definitely going to be getting some more consideration then.

Thanks alot guys

I think I will go with an Alpha and get a few of the EZ Hang straps and I can have multiple options. Would be cheaper than getting a bunch of stands and having to worry about the getting stolen I guess.

Lone Wolf is by far the quietest stand out there. Will others work? Sure they will but if you want the quietest stand then get a Lone Wolf.
