    Good luck to everyone this weekend.

    My only chance is Sunday morning-if it doesn't rain. 60% chance last I looked.

    I'll likely be getting a lone wolf. Just not sure on the Assault or Alpha.

    Also check out XOP vantage. I had one of them and a very stable and comfortable. But definitely check out the API sticks I mentioned. I have lone wolf stick, and I would take the API sticks over lone wolf.

    I've got 2 sets of the API sticks in my cart on Cabelas website. Cannot beat that price.

    How big are you? I personally am 5’7” 215 pounds. The assault was great for me. I had two of them.

    I’ve changed my mind from a summit viper to the LW assault with 4 LW sticks. I’ve owned them both) Check out http://www.mobilehuntinggear.com
    Stick talons. The sticks stay on your back while setting up. Game changer

    Threw my back out at work and had my first planned public land hunt in the morning. Hopefully I can still make it. Or at least make it Sunday. Good luck to all those who can make it in.

    I'm 5'8" and 180lb. I do like the bigger platform on the assault but just not sure if I need it.

    This morning was a bust two doe on walk out. Pulled the cam I set on the scrape line I found Monday. 3 dinks using it and a wide 6 that needs time to grow. Got some MFDC0093.JPG potential.

    Sitting 40 yards inside a picked bean field tonight.

    The assault has the smaller platform and is perfect for run and gun. The small platform never bothered me. I never saw the need for a large platform anyways?

    Yeah I have the assault II. I stand most of the time anyway and shaving the weight meant a lot to me. It's not like I need a lot of floor space. Just a lightweight sturdy perch to kill sh!t from.
