I used to only use hang ons. Never liked them at all and one of those Dicks branded ones failed on me. I guess I forgot how much I hate them because I bought another one like an idiot.
How do you guys that prefer hang ons do it? I bought a Lone Wolf Alpha II because it only weighed 10#, sticks weigh just under 10# for a total of 20# or so. My aluminum climber only weighed 24# but I didn't have to hang sticks, hold the stand with one hand and strap it and I could sit from dark to dark. I can't hardly sit in this thing for an hour.
I hung in the tree from noon until dark - 4:30ish. The back of my legs just below the old butt cheeks feel like I got caned and my three knee surgeries where I had to stand so much are barking. I actually found two screw in tree steps in my back pack that I didn't even know I had and screwed them into each side and hugged the tree and took some weight off my knees.
I wish I'd just found a homeless man and gave him $400 instead of buying this, at least I could've seen him smile.
