I use the Lone Wolf Alpha hang on with 4 sticks.A great compact and fairly light weight system.

Gat the lone wolf sticks. That is what i use and they are lighter ,pack together well and are easy to set up. the millinium is a good comfortable stand to have with it . there are lighter ones but you will loose size or comfort. you will have to wiegh your options as to what is most important, The alpha is about the lightest you will find unless you go to the assault. i think they are 14lbs and 11 lbs

looked at a muddy pro and a set of muddy sticks. i like the sticks, the stand is ok. i think my millinium got me spoiled in the comfort deportment. might go with a millinium and muddy or lone wolfe sticks.

If you want lite and portable check out the Treesuit. www.treesuit.com. I have used one for several years. Extremely light weight, maybe 4 lbs, very comfortable, safe, 360 degrees of shooting.

I'll also vouch for Lone wolf sticks and stands. I have an Alpha Assault and love it. I use 4 sticks, whic heasily gets me to 15', which is where I want to be. They're very flexible with respect to where you can use them, and very light and quiet to carry and attach.

The tree suit look restrictive to me. What happens when you have to shoot the other way?

Default How Come?

How come I never see the following, given as advice, especially to a newbie?

1. a need for minimum physical fitness

2. "Agility and a good sense of balance are also required"

A couple of years ago I compared the weight/cost/length between the Lone Wolf and the Muddy sticks. The Lone Wolf Sticks won based on my calculations and I have really enjoyed the set that I have.
