I was looking at the Lone Wolf's a few months ago and decided not to get one. I was looking at the Assault. I liked it because it was 8.5lbs. I ended up getting the Gorilla Silverback Scout and I'm glad I did. First, it was much cheaper. Second, the seat is thicker. Third, it weighs the same amount. I believe the only difference is that the weight rating is 25lbs less on the Gorilla. Not for sure what models of Lone Wolf your looking at but as far as a hang on I don't think you can beat the Silverback Scout. I did end up getting some Lone Wolf climbing sticks to go with it and those are awesome! Easy to use and lightweight. Beats screw in tree steps any day.
