I'm sure you are going to get a lot this, but Summit stands are my choice. I did a lot of looking around before I bought mine. I use the Summit Viper XLS (last years model). These stands are extremely comfortable, lightweight and you can get in them super quietly. They also come with a great safety harness. Good luck with the decision.

Most will agree I think. There will be some scattered lone wolfs and others.

Personally after buying a Summit I tried the Ol'man line, I sold the Summit and use Ol'man exclusively. Ol'man packs, sets up and climbs easier in my opinion and after hunting with friends that use Summit, I feel Ol'man is quieter as well. Don't get me wrong, Summit would be my second choice.

I am the opposite of Rob. I had an ol'man and sold it after trying out my current summit. To each his own...

Lone Wolf for me, quick, quiet and safe. Seat on 2004 model is said to be very comfy.

Had a new Summit and Ol Man......sold them both for the Lone Wolf.

Less than overly impressed with my new summit Cobra X-4.
Labcoat guy needs to step out of the lab and actually hunt with his creation before sending it to market IMHO.
