Those of you who have them, how do you like them?
I saw them on sale for $270, and I'm debating on buying one. My summit has 8 years of wear and tear, and it may be time to replace. I watched the demo video on their website, and they seem easy enough to use, but I'd like to hear some feedback on them. Thanks.

I was thinking of getting one also. I'm looking at it because it is lite weight.

I saw it at Dicks. I don't like the cable system on the Summit...the rubber goes fast and they make a lot of noise. Plus the top part freefalls into the bottom when setting up too often, and they don't perform well on wider trees. Couple of other things I don't care for that the Lone Wolf doesn't seem to have an issue with.

I've only climbed with them a few times. They are super nice and quiet!
I wish they made a more sturdy shooting/front rail. I'm a sissy when it comes to open front climbers!
Well worth the money!
