RE: Lone Wolf
I have the sit and climb model and I really like it. It is light, sets up in seconds and makes no noise at all. I would recommend the sit and climb, it is much easier to climb with. I have used mine as a hand climber and can do it ok but it is a fair amount of work. If you are not in good shape and strong the hand climber is not for you. I really like mine but it is the first climbing stand I have owned so I have nothing to compare it to. Like I said I have not used other climbers, but from pictures I can' t see how any other brand would be easier or quieter to set up in the dark.
