I've got a summit climber that has been to the woods once. 95% of my hunting is out of a lone wolf lock on. We hang em in august and pull em asap after season. I hate ladder stands with a passion. Deer do too, ever have a big old smart Doe follow the ladder up with her eyes and bust you? I have. Lone wolfs are expensive but you get what you pay for. They are rock solid and NEVER MAKE A SOUND!! Most of our sets stay up through season but I do have one set aside with a set of summit bucksteps strapped on ready to hit the woods. This setup is extremely versatile and quick. No need to hunt for a straight tree without limbs!!!
