Buckeye, I've owned 3 Lone Wolf Sitnclimbs over the years. Loved them all. Sold my last one during the season to justify buying a LW Assault hangon with sticks. I will be adding a
Lone Wolf climber before season I hope. The only bugaboo I have with their traction belt is I have a tendancy to start out at a steep angle so that I can go as high as possible. Sometimes that makes getting started up the tree a little tough, but that is also what makes those traction belts so great............they are extremely quiet, strong, and grip the tree better than any climber I ever tried. Greg/Mo told me he he has developed a way to adjust the belt on the platform of his LW hand climber, for climbing while on the way up. I've not been able to do that. The sitnclimb is easy to use and that front bar for climbing can be folded down while on stand making it an open front.
