hillbilly archer, correct me if I am wrong but I thought Andre designed and founded the Lone Wolf stands? Andre is not a big guy at all.

Nevertheless, stands are like bows. Everyone has their preferences. I've used Lone Wolf stands for 7-8 seasons now simply because they are more functional and suit me better. I am 6'0" and 152 lbs. so the ease of how they pack, climb, durability, quietness, and the ease of mind they allow me to have while up in a tree are very important to me. I feel much safer having to turn my body and moving my feet while getting into position to shoot using one.
