I had an Ol' Man...now I have a Lone Wolf. It's not quite as comfortable as the Ol' Man for long sits, but it's great for long hikes back because it is so light weight. It's also silent and easier to set up and adjust (the Ol' Man is louder to set up, no matter how careful you are).

love my lone wolf alfa hand climber! but i only use it for afternoon hunts when hopin around the woods zeroing on them rascals! but it would not be too comft for an all day stand for me. i do like the summits climbers from the looks of them,but i had a guy on the same farm climb up a tree not far away from me ..yea i know.. but he did and he was in the right wind so... any way when he climbed up i heard a loud noise.. it was his cable as he climbed up and the cable went from slack to snug on the tree.. not sure if it still does that but that was the only thing that kept me from gettin one... hope you find the one that suits your needs for the coming season

I love my ol' man. I've had one for 10 years or better. Bought another one just prior to a Ky deer hunt 3 years ago, all camo. I just love they way they sit on those long days on stand. I do use a back pad on those long days though. That ol'man that is posted is one I have not seen, I've got to check that out! Is it aluminum ? What's it made of?
