Got a new lock on lone wolf stand. How quickly can you put up your lock on?
With 3 climbing sticks, takes me about 10 min. unless the tree is real large. Then maybe a few more.
really really fast. So fast that when I get done, it looks just like a Chippewa Wedgelock stand !

If I use the EZ hooks it really does set up in moments. I recomend the Alpha ELITE just for the extra space and seat. I love to be able to step forward and slowly stretch a bit, particularly after I've been in it awhile. It is 8lbs heavier than the Alpha but I don't move my loc-ons around that much and if 8lbs matters to you-you are out of shape! :)
I am right on with Fritz... with 3 climbing sticks it takes me about 10 minutes tops to be ready to hunt with my Lone Wolf Alpha.
Yep, 3 sticks and a safety harness, ten minutes is about right unless I have to do a lot of pruning.
Well you guys must be slow- I can get mine set up in 9 minutes.....
I put tree steps in the trees I want to hunt from. Trim shooting lanes and then leave the area alone. From the time I get to the bottom of the tree to the time I am sitting in the stand, it's about 1 minute or maybe 2. Ready to hunt in under 5 minutes.

I'd say 10 mins or under is about right. Another thing I do is no longer try to be as quiet as possible when putting up my stands,my buddy raises his eyes but I swear I have had more than one buck come in shortly after I am in stand just to see what all the noise (chain rattling) was about
