Both hangons and climbers have their place. Hangons are great if left in the tree for all season use. Climbers are great when hunting public land and wanting to try a new area. I can put a Lone Wolf climbing stand up and be ready to hunt faster than hanging a stand.

That is true but I guess where I would differ with you is If I were going to new place I would take the hang-on with my climbing sticks. The climber is limited to relatively straight, limbless trees while the climbing sticks and hang-on can get into almost any tree. No right answer I suppose, just a matter of preference.

whenever possible I use my climber. It's the most comfortable and easiest to move from tree to tree which helps tremendously on public land. I use hang-ons when the tree warrants it.
