After 30 years of bowhunting I wish I had just bought it right off the bat. I just bought mine this year and love it. I use the alpha hangon and lone wolf sticks. Itake my stand in and out of the woods with me each day. The setup is easy and no one can rip off my stand even though I only hunt private ground people still trespass. I never overhunt this way as Iam always on the move and I can hunt the wind. Climbers are too restrictive as they require a perfect tree and the hang on works virtually anywhere.
