I prefer Lone Wolf, I use both the climbers and the hang ons. Prefer the hand climber model for climbimg trees. but if I don't know what tree I am going to be in, I use the hang on with the ladder sections that quietly attach to the back of the stand, that way I can get into any tree. I like the quiet cast platform and the simple quiet set up which is essential when hunting nocturnal bucks close to there bedding areas. I used to be an outfitter, I got a close look at alot of different stands, these were the best.
