RE: Lone Wolf Sit and Climb
Lone Wolf or an Equalizer all the way. Here is my take on on why I prefer the seat on a Lone Wolf(just bought an '07). The seat may not be as thick and rigid as the Summit seat but there is a huge advantage to that because if you need to stand closer to the tree or more platform room to take a shot, the Lone Wolf seat allows you to slide/fold the seat up by simply leaning against it. The Summit I used to own(Cobra XLS) did not really allow for much platform space or allow you to be closer to the tree if needed. Besides, I hated the arm rests on the Summit, the way it packed, and the way it felt when carrying it.
Don't forget an Equalizer. Recently had a like new but used one and sold it, shoulda kept it. Its comfy, sturdy, easy to use and the leveling feature works well.
