Just wanted to say thanks for this. I’m prepping for my first climbing stand hunt tomorrow, and this is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Very approachable, thorough, and thoughtful videos.
Sean - having just started bow hunting with my son last year, I have learned more from your videos that I ever could ever imagined. Thank you for putting these videos out there! God bless you for all of your effort to help others!

Awesome video! Out of all the ideas you have, I think the one I like the most is the simple tree strap you tied for hanging your backpack higher (if desired). That is one thing I didn't care for about my D loop being on the side of the seat, is the backpack will tilt out so your openings are facing away from you, especially when letting it also rest on the foot part. I will more than likely adopt a rope like you have for hanging it to the tree! Thanks, and again great video!

Couldnt agree more sean, I think you have a really intelligent style, love your videos, I'd appreciate some consideration for the great challenge of hunting our large Massachusetts bucks! Haha.
nice catch Sean, I have reversed my straps on both my climber and my hang on lone wolf stands after seeing your vid. I don't hunt hills but I've taken more than one fall in the swampy areas I hunt. I never once thought about those teeth, but they do look like they could rip your scalp open pretty easy.

Need to change my setup on my Viper SS. I too carry my backpack like you do. It just gets too heavy sometimes, so if I'm going to a normal spot i know really well i just take important gear in a small fanny pack so i pack lighter.

Sean for 2 years now I've owned and used the lone wolf climber and never thought about those cords being tied to my seats I've always tied everything with a knot around the tree and hung all my gear there. This is so much simpler. Now did you drill the hole for your bow holder? or did your lone wolf come with that?
Been thinking about getting one of those chairs, not for hunting but for wildlife photography, should be easy enough to modify the leg part to support a tripod at the front! Great video ! 👍🏻😊
Hello Sean, Great video I just purchased the lone wolf sit and climb II. It is slightly different with the seat and it seems like it is going to be more difficult to secure without using an additional bungy cords. I hunted for over 18 years with a loggy and i looking forward to using a modern climber. I used every tip from this video to modify my lone wolf. Thanks again for the great video.
What is the traction belt made of? Is it rubber coated steel wire or just like a car belt. I've turned down buying a lone wolf off line and nobody in my area carries them. My concern is that the traction belt would dry rot if it's just rubber.
I would say that the kidney belt part is made of the same material as the shoulder straps, which is a heavy duty canvas type of material. It is very durable.
@@dak8840 It is rubber with a mettle lining I think. I've been using mine for about 14 years without any issues and they still look as solid as when I got them.

Hi shawn, i have used this exact stand since they first came out, Here's 1 of my tip for all viewers I have used that bungee cord to fish most stuff that i have drops to the ground after i finishing setup, just simply use ur bow rope and tie to the center of the bungee cord and lower down to hook whatever u may have drops, like jacket bow release and such.. btw u have a great channel
The more I watch your videos, the more the more I am encouraged to see a fellow brother in Christ have no shame in giving God props and teach newbies like me with practical tips and techniques. I just ordered your book. I look forward to seeing how another doulos worships in the woods. Got a question for you. I have an xop sit and climb. Is it smart to take off the seat bar and use my forearms on the top half (like a hand climber)? Obviously, I will be tethered in. Have you tried it? Secondly, have you tried the primal tree steps? Any recommendations for a set of climbing sticks for a guy like me who wants quality, safety but is on a budget of max 125$ for a set? God bless ya man. Deuteronomy 32:3
I would fold the bar out of the way and try it before you take it off. As for steps..before the current owner of that company the previous owner of it asked me to review them and he le.t me a set asking for them back. I tried it on a tree and it ripped the bark up so badly that I would not use them on public land for fear of getting fined for damaging the tree. I told him he needed to make a rubber cleat to keep the metal from digging into the tree but he did not. I don't know if they ever made improvements but I wasn't a fan of them. That was about 7 or 8 years ago I think.
Beware ! many people have had Lone Wolf Grade 8 bolts snap. My buddy is only 175lbs and his snapped, he was one of the lucky ones. Replace these bolts once a year.
Sean love your videos and I've basically copied this setup.... With a couple minor changes. One you should consider for safety is the placement of the two black tether straps on the bottom portion of the climber. With them so far forward, as you have them, if the bottom stand gets away from you and decides to ratchet itself down the tree it'll catch because it's attached to the top climber. As intended. But in this case the bottom climber's forward most portion would be high, since that's where the straps are attached, and the grey tree strap and climber teeth would be stuck in a position that isn't engaged to the tree..... Basically the front of the stand as high as possible. I've had that happen before and basically I had to hang onto the top climber, hanging down at full body extension, and was able to get the bottom climber reengaged to the tree properly. I didn't even wait to get to the bottom of the tree to switch the strap placement on the bottom climber about as far back as possible towards the tree trunk. Even had a Muscat staring up at me like I was a moron. Haha. Hope it helps sir. Cheers and keep up the great videos.
I want to see you climb with that little seat. You got a lot of good things up-dated, but that climbing seat is not one. My buddy had one ,and it was so tiring and no help in climbing the tree that he sent it back. That climbing seat is out dated for me. When Baker, the father of climbing stands came out with climbing stands he used a climbing seat that worked the same way, and boy was it tiring to use. As a bow hunter I would not use that seat climber. I still have the Old antique Baker seat climber. You need to update that seat climber.
Hey, thanks for the offer, but falls from using a climbing sticks and a tree step that broke, have left me unable to walk any distance. If it wasn't for that I would have taken you up on that hike. Hey you used the set just great. Better than I did when I used it's type. I have a light API climber. Both my API, and my Summit, is far better to hunt from for comfort, and safety. To each his ow. Thank you for your video.
The hand climber I had was with Baker climbers. You could hang from them, or lock elbows and pull your feet up, with the foot part hanging below, like what you do. I'll tell you, after falling that last time messing up both my knee's and my lower back. It has taken away my ability to walk and get back where the deer are. Those climbing stands I mentioned are good. But you are not safe just because you have those things in your possession but comes when you attach them before leaving the ground. I still can drag one out, but my encounters are 75 % lower now. Think safe, and good hunting.

Awesome video! I’m going to hunt public land 100% of the time and I’m having a hard time choosing between a climber vs a stick and stand set up. What do you recommend?
Well, I personally prefer a climber, but there are options. Depending on how much money you have to spend, there are some stands and sticks that are getting pretty light like the new Lone Wolf stuff. I personally like the climber, but a lot of the places I have hunted had plenty of trees you could get in a climber with. You should take a walk around the area where you will be hunting and see how the trees look for a climber. If there are not many good straight trees with no branches low, then you may need to do a hang on for that reason.
that's awesome I literally just bought those exact same straps and kidney belt for my stand it is so helpful and well worth it at only 45 bucks for the both..

I've been using my lone wolf for about a month now and it is by far the most stable climbing stand I've tried . The belt like straps grip the tree very well and haven't slipped at all .

Sean, Don't you think it would be better to hook your haul up line directly thru the top and bottom cam as to not compromise the string in any way. I have been doing it this way for over 35 years and find it works alot better. You have some great ideas that I have never thought of that I plan on implementing on my new XOP Air Raid stand and climbing sticks. Thanks for the info. As usual great video. God bless.
The clip on my hoist is to narrow to fit over a cam. I've had this hoist for 20 years and it has never hurt the string in the least way, but if I had a choice I would hook it to the cam. Glad you got some good ideas from the video. God bless you too.
Sean's Outdoor Adventures May I suggest you thread the clip thru the cam then attach it to the pull up line.(alternative) and there is no noise and no chance of damage. I once (in 35+ years) had my bow catch on a limb and did what you do. When I pulled hard to release it from the limb my string(strand) got abbraded and thats why I do it my way now. Hope it helps and once again great ideas and videos. Keep up the fantastic job Sean.
That won't work for this strap because it is so thick and wide and the clip is so narrow and shallow. The clip is definitely a poor design. It's lasted a long time though. I tried a different hoist a year or two ago but it was so noisy that I switched back to this one. It works fine for me, and I am typically in a climber so there are no branches below me, so I have never had any issues, but i will keep an eye out for branches. Thanks and God bless you.
Thanks and LOL! My brother had a bow shop in 08, 09 and he probably still has them somewhere. I bought it in 2008. I will look tomorrow. I found the back straps on Ebay for $15

Sean - Awesome video as always. I was wondering, do you have the model of that strap hoist you use for your bow? I've officially had it with the typical string with a slip on it. it never seems to stay wrapped up, and its a total pain in and out of the woods. Thanks!

I was able to swap around my straps and set my pack this way and holy cow ! This is how the stand should be set up from the get go. THANKS. Going this route I no longer have to use he bungee, flip the seat arms, or raise the platform arms. I bet it saves me 5 min + at the base of the tree. You sir, earned yourself a subscriber today. Thomas.
Great info Sean, thanks for sharing your knowledge. Question, I"m a new-bee looking into climbers and wanted to ask if your still rocking the Lone Wolf and or if you have moved to a different system. Thanks in advance...
Strongly considering the LW hand climber II - great video. Sean have you seen any major changes (that would deviate from your mods) from your stand in the video to the latest LW hand climber II?
Good video but why would you hook the hoist to the yoke cable instead of the car or looped around the limb? Seems a bit odd to put that stress(and wear) on the cable ....
Ahh I see I always tie a loop in my cord about 8-10” up and loop the pull string around the limbs and back up to clip on the loop I made so it doesnt scratch my bow 😉

Great video. I've been humping around the alpha hand climber for 13 years with those standard straps and just lived with it myself. And although not very bad by itself, I plan to pack more gear along these days for more time in the woods, and this Molle strap upgrade is perfect. It just arrived today so now I'm definitely looking forward to getting after these late season Wisconsin whitetails. Great idea and tip, so thanks! Inverting the stand with teeth down while carrying is also a must. Great stuff. Thanks for the vids.
Nice set-up when carrying your stand. I have the assult climber and the base is to small to put the seat in between the support rails of the bottom portion of the stand so I have to carry mine flat...nice review.
Thanks for checking out my videos. I appreciate it. God bless you. www.amazon.com/shop/seansoutdooradventures www.seansoutdooradventures.com facebook.com/seansoutdoors/ instagram.com/seansoutdooradventures/
Sean get rid of the top of that stand switch to the flip top model as for your bow crank or bow puller upper deal throw it out good with the third hand archery rope I know you will like it ps take off the gun rail on the flip top lonewolf top My reasons your bow crank is too loud in the cold and it plastic The flip top will remove your silowet and you can almost shot behind the tree
Assult is like 14.5 lbs, hand climber 17 and s&c 20. Not many lower in weight beside the x stand. Regardless I'm getting one, the cast platform is worth it. My summit is loud as hell.
Do you use/or reccomend using a safety harness? I use one to get in and out of my ladder stand. I just dont feel comfortable without being tied off. I find it takes a bit longer but to me it is worth it.
Hi Sean. Thanks for this video, I just ordered a lone wolf hand climber last week. I can't wait to try it out! big woods hunting at its best. Thanks for the tips, I will definitely get a strap system like yours as I will be hiking miles with this thing. Awesome vid as usual! I hope you get to your 100k subscribers very soon, You've provided us all viewers an invaluable service. I can't wait to get lost in the woods away from all the crowds here in the green mountains!
I got it on Ebay, and Andrew Penzi has been talking about making a video on how he attached one to his, but he had to do a bunch of crazy sewing and nonsense, so it is not an easy attachment to that style stand.

Great video Sean! I have the exact same stand. I really like how you keep it not packed all the way down and reversed the backpack straps. Really great idea! Never seen anyone do that before... I have the XL bands on mine to get in larger trees for better cover. .. a trick I learned is there is a bolt in the way on the bottom extruded aluminum channels that prevents the band going through where you can't use it on smaller trees. On the shorter bands the stand comes with it doesn't matter because the ends don't reach the bolts but on the XL bands it limits your tree size. What you can do is turn those bolts around and reverse them to the outside... then the band will go all the way through the channel and you still can fit the small trees as well as the larger now too!! Take care, Rob

Sean, thank you for this video. You have given me many tips that I will incorporate into my own setup and confirmed some techniques I've been using. I too carry my stand teeth down for the same reasons and the belts don't catch on low hanging branches. I look forward to watching more of your videos. Have a Merry Christmas & God bless :) Scott

Sean's Outdoor Adventures Love it. Keeps my pack close, can still lift my seat on my xop vanish xt and strap my quiver to the pack. Every right where I need it. So simple but great
Thanks for the great video Sean. I was about to give up on my hand climber but between this video and your one on the setup process I decided to give it another try. I found your mods and process much easier and smoother and harvested a nice doe my first setup using it. Keep up the good work.

Hey Sean. What bow holder is that? I picked up the summit universal one because thought thats what it was but it seems the threads dont go far enough to get the star to snug up.
I like this video, it is very informative. This guy knows his stuff. Wishing you a great coming hunting season. I can't wait myself, hoping to get a few white tailers on the ground.

Just wanted to say thanks for this. I’m prepping for my first climbing stand hunt tomorrow, and this is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Very approachable, thorough, and thoughtful videos.
You are welcome God bless you
Sean - having just started bow hunting with my son last year, I have learned more from your videos that I ever could ever imagined. Thank you for putting these videos out there! God bless you for all of your effort to help others!

I’m a new hunter (at 50 years old) and I don’t have any family or friends who hunt. Your videos are so incredibly helpful. Thanks so much!
I made them just for you and people like you. God bless you
I wouldn't clip onto any part of my bowstring to lift it into the tree. Nice vid though.

Awesome video! Out of all the ideas you have, I think the one I like the most is the simple tree strap you tied for hanging your backpack higher (if desired). That is one thing I didn't care for about my D loop being on the side of the seat, is the backpack will tilt out so your openings are facing away from you, especially when letting it also rest on the foot part. I will more than likely adopt a rope like you have for hanging it to the tree! Thanks, and again great video!

Couldnt agree more sean, I think you have a really intelligent style, love your videos, I'd appreciate some consideration for the great challenge of hunting our large Massachusetts bucks! Haha.
Thanks man. God bless ya in your pursuits of those Massachusetts bucks.
nice catch Sean, I have reversed my straps on both my climber and my hang on lone wolf stands after seeing your vid. I don't hunt hills but I've taken more than one fall in the swampy areas I hunt. I never once thought about those teeth, but they do look like they could rip your scalp open pretty easy.

Need to change my setup on my Viper SS. I too carry my backpack like you do. It just gets too heavy sometimes, so if I'm going to a normal spot i know really well i just take important gear in a small fanny pack so i pack lighter.

Sean for 2 years now I've owned and used the lone wolf climber and never thought about those cords being tied to my seats I've always tied everything with a knot around the tree and hung all my gear there. This is so much simpler. Now did you drill the hole for your bow holder? or did your lone wolf come with that?
The line wolf I have came with that hole in it.. it works very well to this day.
@@seansoutdoors hmm I’ll have to check mine. They discontinued the lone wolfs 😩
Been thinking about getting one of those chairs, not for hunting but for wildlife photography, should be easy enough to modify the leg part to support a tripod at the front! Great video ! 👍🏻😊
Awesome. God bless your endeavors
Thank you so much for this awesome video Shawn.
You're welcome
Should use the bungy to strap up your backpack straps so they dont sway in the wind
God bless you
Hello Sean, Great video I just purchased the lone wolf sit and climb II. It is slightly different with the seat and it seems like it is going to be more difficult to secure without using an additional bungy cords. I hunted for over 18 years with a loggy and i looking forward to using a modern climber. I used every tip from this video to modify my lone wolf. Thanks again for the great video.
Great best of luck with it
Really helpful. Just bought this stand and this helps eliminate trial and error significantly. Thanks for the smart ideas. Safe hunting friends.
Sure. Enjoy it!
What is the traction belt made of? Is it rubber coated steel wire or just like a car belt. I've turned down buying a lone wolf off line and nobody in my area carries them. My concern is that the traction belt would dry rot if it's just rubber.
I would say that the kidney belt part is made of the same material as the shoulder straps, which is a heavy duty canvas type of material. It is very durable.
@@seansoutdoors im referring to the strap that goes around the tree. That holds the stand to the tree.
@@dak8840 It is rubber with a mettle lining I think. I've been using mine for about 14 years without any issues and they still look as solid as when I got them.
Now is the time a year to get your set up locked down for the season.

Hi shawn, i have used this exact stand since they first came out,
Here's 1 of my tip for all viewers
I have used that bungee cord to fish most stuff that i have drops to the ground after i finishing setup, just simply use ur bow rope and tie to the center of the bungee cord and lower down to hook whatever u may have drops, like jacket bow release and such.. btw u have a great channel
Great
Great video and very helpful. Thanks Sean
Great to hear, thanks!
The more I watch your videos, the more the more I am encouraged to see a fellow brother in Christ have no shame in giving God props and teach newbies like me with practical tips and techniques. I just ordered your book. I look forward to seeing how another doulos worships in the woods.
Got a question for you. I have an xop sit and climb. Is it smart to take off the seat bar and use my forearms on the top half (like a hand climber)? Obviously, I will be tethered in. Have you tried it? Secondly, have you tried the primal tree steps? Any recommendations for a set of climbing sticks for a guy like me who wants quality, safety but is on a budget of max 125$ for a set? God bless ya man. Deuteronomy 32:3
I would fold the bar out of the way and try it before you take it off. As for steps..before the current owner of that company the previous owner of it asked me to review them and he le.t me a set asking for them back. I tried it on a tree and it ripped the bark up so badly that I would not use them on public land for fear of getting fined for damaging the tree. I told him he needed to make a rubber cleat to keep the metal from digging into the tree but he did not. I don't know if they ever made improvements but I wasn't a fan of them. That was about 7 or 8 years ago I think.
Beware ! many people have had Lone Wolf Grade 8 bolts snap. My buddy is only 175lbs and his snapped, he was one of the lucky ones. Replace these bolts once a year.
Okay. God bless ya
Sean, fantastic video. I can’t wait to change up my set up this evening !!
Great! Thanks for watching
Sean love your videos and I've basically copied this setup.... With a couple minor changes. One you should consider for safety is the placement of the two black tether straps on the bottom portion of the climber. With them so far forward, as you have them, if the bottom stand gets away from you and decides to ratchet itself down the tree it'll catch because it's attached to the top climber. As intended. But in this case the bottom climber's forward most portion would be high, since that's where the straps are attached, and the grey tree strap and climber teeth would be stuck in a position that isn't engaged to the tree..... Basically the front of the stand as high as possible. I've had that happen before and basically I had to hang onto the top climber, hanging down at full body extension, and was able to get the bottom climber reengaged to the tree properly. I didn't even wait to get to the bottom of the tree to switch the strap placement on the bottom climber about as far back as possible towards the tree trunk. Even had a Muscat staring up at me like I was a moron. Haha. Hope it helps sir. Cheers and keep up the great videos.
God bless you
I want to see you climb with that little seat. You got a lot of good things up-dated, but that climbing seat is not one. My buddy had one ,and it was so tiring and no help in climbing the tree that he sent it back. That climbing seat is out dated for me. When Baker, the father of climbing stands came out with climbing stands he used a climbing seat that worked the same way, and boy was it tiring to use. As a bow hunter I would not use that seat climber. I still have the Old antique Baker seat climber. You need to update that seat climber.
Hey, thanks for the offer, but falls from using a climbing sticks and a tree step that broke, have left me unable to walk any distance. If it wasn't for that I would have taken you up on that hike. Hey you used the set just great. Better than I did when I used it's type. I have a light API climber. Both my API, and my Summit, is far better to hunt from for comfort, and safety. To each his ow. Thank you for your video.
The hand climber I had was with Baker climbers. You could hang from them, or lock elbows and pull your feet up, with the foot part hanging below, like what you do. I'll tell you, after falling that last time messing up both my knee's and my lower back. It has taken away my ability to walk and get back where the deer are. Those climbing stands I mentioned are good. But you are not safe just because you have those things in your possession but comes when you attach them before leaving the ground. I still can drag one out, but my encounters are 75 % lower now. Think safe, and good hunting.

i know this video is from a while ago but
how do you like the lone wolf hand climber?
Love the stand! I've used it on about 99% of my hunts for the past 13 years.
Where did you find your Bow Hoist? I have not seen one but like it better than carrying a long rope.
My main hoist that I use almost always is 20 years old. It is similar to this one amzn.to/2GTRNMb
I roll my jacket and strap it behind my neck to protect it from being jabbed or cut. Speaking of their hang ones not climbers.
God bless ya
Awesome video! I’m going to hunt public land 100% of the time and I’m having a hard time choosing between a climber vs a stick and stand set up. What do you recommend?
Well, I personally prefer a climber, but there are options. Depending on how much money you have to spend, there are some stands and sticks that are getting pretty light like the new Lone Wolf stuff. I personally like the climber, but a lot of the places I have hunted had plenty of trees you could get in a climber with. You should take a walk around the area where you will be hunting and see how the trees look for a climber. If there are not many good straight trees with no branches low, then you may need to do a hang on for that reason.
Thanks ! I have only scouted 2/5 places that I plan on going to and for the most part the tress have been super straight.
You can also use this stand for a hang on I own 3 . Sometimes I just travel light and use just the seat as a hang on and branches for foot res
that's awesome I literally just bought those exact same straps and kidney belt for my stand it is so helpful and well worth it at only 45 bucks for the both..

I haven't really felt safe with climbing stands in the past . I'm gonna try a lone wolf this fall , thanks for all the great info !
I've been using my lone wolf for about a month now and it is by far the most stable climbing stand I've tried .
The belt like straps grip the tree very well and haven't slipped at all .

Sean, Don't you think it would be better to hook your haul up line directly thru the top and bottom cam as to not compromise the string in any way. I have been doing it this way for over 35 years and find it works alot better. You have some great ideas that I have never thought of that I plan on implementing on my new XOP Air Raid stand and climbing sticks. Thanks for the info. As usual great video. God bless.
The clip on my hoist is to narrow to fit over a cam. I've had this hoist for 20 years and it has never hurt the string in the least way, but if I had a choice I would hook it to the cam. Glad you got some good ideas from the video. God bless you too.
Sean's Outdoor Adventures May I suggest you thread the clip thru the cam then attach it to the pull up line.(alternative) and there is no noise and no chance of damage. I once (in 35+ years) had my bow catch on a limb and did what you do. When I pulled hard to release it from the limb my string(strand) got abbraded and thats why I do it my way now. Hope it helps and once again great ideas and videos. Keep up the fantastic job Sean.
That won't work for this strap because it is so thick and wide and the clip is so narrow and shallow. The clip is definitely a poor design. It's lasted a long time though. I tried a different hoist a year or two ago but it was so noisy that I switched back to this one. It works fine for me, and I am typically in a climber so there are no branches below me, so I have never had any issues, but i will keep an eye out for branches. Thanks and God bless you.
l loved the the modifications and can't wait to do it to my lonewolf climber. where did you get the black straps that clip the seat to the stand???
Thanks and LOL! My brother had a bow shop in 08, 09 and he probably still has them somewhere. I bought it in 2008. I will look tomorrow. I found the back straps on Ebay for $15

Sean - Awesome video as always. I was wondering, do you have the model of that strap hoist you use for your bow? I've officially had it with the typical string with a slip on it. it never seems to stay wrapped up, and its a total pain in and out of the woods. Thanks!

I was able to swap around my straps and set my pack this way and holy cow ! This is how the stand should be set up from the get go. THANKS.
Going this route I no longer have to use he bungee, flip the seat arms, or raise the platform arms. I bet it saves me 5 min + at the base of the tree.
You sir, earned yourself a subscriber today.
Thomas.
GREAT! Glad it was helpful, glad to hear that. Best of luck out there. God bless you.
Great info Sean, thanks for sharing your knowledge. Question, I"m a new-bee looking into climbers and wanted to ask if your still rocking the Lone Wolf and or if you have moved to a different system. Thanks in advance...
Thanks
Where do you get it replacement belts for the lone wolf tree stand?
Thank you
Contact lone wolf directly for that. It should be on their website.
Strongly considering the LW hand climber II - great video. Sean have you seen any major changes (that would deviate from your mods) from your stand in the video to the latest LW hand climber II?
I just looked on their website at all of the climbers, and I didn't see anything that would change it. God bless ya.
do you have the 26 inch or 30 inch version?
30
Got the 30, certainly very excited now. Great video and super-helpful hints - will use many of these hints especially starting new.
Great. Best of luck to you!!! God bless. Sean
Good video but why would you hook the hoist to the yoke cable instead of the car or looped around the limb? Seems a bit odd to put that stress(and wear) on the cable ....
The clip on that hoist is too narrow to fit on the cam.
Ahh I see
I always tie a loop in my cord about 8-10” up and loop the pull string around the limbs and back up to clip on the loop I made so it doesnt scratch my bow 😉
Sean I use an old s hood from those old bungi cords and clamp it down in the middle of the bungi and it won't ever break, it works really well

Have you used a rifle on this stand? I was looking for any shooting tail ideas.
No I don't hunt with a rifle.
Where the heck do you attach the cup holder? 😂. Thanks Sean for all you do to help us out...you’re a true blessing, brother!
Lol, you are welcome. Thanks for watching and God bless you.
Hey Sean do you climb the tree with the backpack on you or you leave on the ground and pull it up after your reach desired high?
I climb with it on my back
Ok thank you
Where did you get the backpack straps for carrying the stand?
Ebay
can you send link for the backpack strap system you are using on the trestand

Great video. I've been humping around the alpha hand climber for 13 years with those standard straps and just lived with it myself. And although not very bad by itself, I plan to pack more gear along these days for more time in the woods, and this Molle strap upgrade is perfect. It just arrived today so now I'm definitely looking forward to getting after these late season Wisconsin whitetails. Great idea and tip, so thanks! Inverting the stand with teeth down while carrying is also a must. Great stuff. Thanks for the vids.
That is awesome. Enjoy it and God's blessings on your hunts.
Sean's Outdoor Adventures Right on. Thank you. 👍
You are welcome. God bless ya
Nice set-up when carrying your stand. I have the assult climber and the base is to small to put the seat in between the support rails of the bottom portion of the stand so I have to carry mine flat...nice review.

Sean get rid of the top of that stand switch to the flip top model as for your bow crank or bow puller upper deal throw it out good with the third hand archery rope I know you will like it ps take off the gun rail on the flip top lonewolf top
My reasons your bow crank is too loud in the cold and it plastic
The flip top will remove your silowet and you can almost shot behind the tree
Thanks Dave but I like my rig and I've got an extensive, proven track record with it so I think it is working just fine. God bless ya
Good video. The LW climber is heavy. Very secure when on the tree, but heavy.
Thanks, if you think this is heavy, don't try some others, because this is one of the lightest climbers on the market. God bless and enjoy!
Assult is like 14.5 lbs, hand climber 17 and s&c 20. Not many lower in weight beside the x stand.
Regardless I'm getting one, the cast platform is worth it. My summit is loud as hell.
Do you use/or reccomend using a safety harness? I use one to get in and out of my ladder stand. I just dont feel comfortable without being tied off. I find it takes a bit longer but to me it is worth it.
I use a tree climbing harness, the one depicted in this video ua-cam.com/video/z_YGN2mANFI/v-deo.html
Love your tips and techniques too. Making all of us better hunters
Thanks
Hi Sean. Thanks for this video, I just ordered a lone wolf hand climber last week. I can't wait to try it out! big woods hunting at its best. Thanks for the tips, I will definitely get a strap system like yours as I will be hiking miles with this thing. Awesome vid as usual! I hope you get to your 100k subscribers very soon, You've provided us all viewers an invaluable service. I can't wait to get lost in the woods away from all the crowds here in the green mountains!
AWESOME. Have fun, and thanks!
That looks super comfortable I love my lone wolf tree stand!
Awesome, thanks for sharing.
Hi Sean,
Question on the backpack system...
Where do you buy it and is it fit on the summit viper sd?
😳
I got it on Ebay, and Andrew Penzi has been talking about making a video on how he attached one to his, but he had to do a bunch of crazy sewing and nonsense, so it is not an easy attachment to that style stand.
Sean's Outdoor Adventures Got it. Do you have the link for it? I can not find it... God bless u Sean!
I left instructions in the description section of this video of how I got mine.
I would not advise attaching anything to the bow string! loop the rope around the limbs or riser instead. I actually use a retractable dog leash.

Great video Sean! I have the exact same stand. I really like how you keep it not packed all the way down and reversed the backpack straps. Really great idea! Never seen anyone do that before... I have the XL bands on mine to get in larger trees for better cover. .. a trick I learned is there is a bolt in the way on the bottom extruded aluminum channels that prevents the band going through where you can't use it on smaller trees. On the shorter bands the stand comes with it doesn't matter because the ends don't reach the bolts but on the XL bands it limits your tree size. What you can do is turn those bolts around and reverse them to the outside... then the band will go all the way through the channel and you still can fit the small trees as well as the larger now too!! Take care, Rob

Sean, thank you for this video. You have given me many tips that I will incorporate into my own setup and confirmed some techniques I've been using. I too carry my stand teeth down for the same reasons and the belts don't catch on low hanging branches. I look forward to watching more of your videos. Have a Merry Christmas & God bless :) Scott

Sean's Outdoor Adventures
Love it. Keeps my pack close, can still lift my seat on my xop vanish xt and strap my quiver to the pack. Every right where I need it. So simple but great
How tall are you? I’ve been really thinking about getting an assault hand climber but doesn’t look like a lot of foot room
I'm over six feet and size 13 shoe. I personally wouldn't get a more narrow platform in the back.
@@seansoutdoors so do you have the full size platform or the assault? I’m looking to get the smaller assault size
@@s1esteve I have the full size
Thanks for the great video Sean. I was about to give up on my hand climber but between this video and your one on the setup process I decided to give it another try. I found your mods and process much easier and smoother and harvested a nice doe my first setup using it. Keep up the good work.
That is great, glad it was helpful.
@seansoutdooradventures what is the brand of bow holder you have?
I’m not sure. I took apart one that was like 20 years old. Probably don’t even make them anymore
Sean's Outdoor Adventures gotcha. Your videos are super helpful for upping my game with the bow.
What kind of bow holder do you have on the platform?
It's an old one I took apart. I don't think they make them anymore
by far the best climber tutorial ive watched you just got another subscriber
thanks Jerry, glad to hear it! God bless you.
This is a great video. Thank you for the help!!
Sure thing
Why not clip the hoist on your cam??
haha gotcha, Thanks!

What is the carrier you used? Do you still use it now that you modified the platform for saddle hunting?
I don't use this anymore. I now use the one made by XOP
@@seansoutdoors any interest in selling it? Would it still work w the mod you made for the saddle? Im going to make the same mod.
@@nicklausmisiti5204 I'm not sure if I still have it. I will look

Where did you happen to get the back pack harness system that you replaced the stock straps with?
I got it off eBay. XOP now makes a similar system.
@@seansoutdoors what did you search for bc I’ve tried many combos and can’t seem to find what I need
Molle Straps

Thank you Sean for sharing all this vety helpful advise
My pleasure!
@@seansoutdoors if I can get over not having a bar in front of me, this will be my only stand. Ots light, quiet and simple
nice job..Im new to a climber and I will follow ur lead..
Thanks
You attached the hip belt upside down.
Awesome, it works well upside down. Gives me the best coverage with the way the stand is designed. God bless ya.
Hi Sean, i like to ask you, what is the best straps to carry the stand and meat pack, which you recommend, thanks i appreciate.
When I am doing a packout, I use a backpacking backpack and strap my stand to the backpack not the other way around.
@@seansoutdoors any particular model number , i am new, i am buying little by little , can you be specific and point me out a medium price backpack , thank you so much ,
@@mfeijoo2993 Any will do to be honest. Just get something big enough to fit the meat from a deer if you are doing a packout. God bless
@@seansoutdoors thank you so much , what i had learned about white tail hunting is from you, thank you so much, i am saving to get a good backpack, there is so many items to buy, but i will keep learning mean while.
What brand molle set up is That? Having a hard time finding one online
As I mention in the Description section of this video, I just typed Molle DCU Straps into Ebay and they came up.
Hope that helps. God bless ya.
Thanks! I watched the whole video then read comments I didn't even think to look in the description. Duhh thanks again and nice video!
Sure thing. God bless ya.
Sean, what the model name of the Molle system are you using.......thanks
Ummm, I don't actually recall now. I just looked up Molle straps on eBay and purchased them on there.
@@seansoutdoors just dont see any like yours with the lower back padding and waist band thanks
@@1alexcody This video was made many years ago. XOP now makes a carrying system you may want to look into amzn.to/37WFx6Q God bless you.

Hey Sean. What bow holder is that? I picked up the summit universal one because thought thats what it was but it seems the threads dont go far enough to get the star to snug up.
It is an old holder that I took apart and is no longer made. I use a third hand bow holder on all my other stands.
Allen Company makes that style bow holder now. It can be found on Amazon for around 10 bucks.
Yeah, looks like this is it here. amzn.to/2jTaa5r
@@seansoutdoors where did u get the carrying system
@@T.C._Timbers I ordered it off of ebay
Trying to get up and down tree is the issue.
ua-cam.com/video/CKB_fTWg6d0/v-deo.html
Is there a good climbimg stand with a gun or crossbow rest?
I’d suggest getting one with a sit rail that stays out. I think summit and muddy might have some like that
I like this video, it is very informative. This guy knows his stuff. Wishing you a great coming hunting season. I can't wait myself, hoping to get a few white tailers on the ground.

Has anyone used the lone wolf assault.
The back of the stand is more narrow so the footing isn’t as good in the stand but other than that it’s good
great advice. thanks for all your great work.
You are welcome. Thanks for watching. God bless ya.
I just watched this vid you sent me to ,, great advice
Great, thanks. God bless you Jon
