    I like the muddy sticks and the lone wolf sticks. Which are better out of the two? Is there a set better than these two?

    I have the older Gorilla sticks. I dont think they sell them anymore. But you may want to give Gorilla a look.

    I like my lone wolf sticks, work well with the Alpha hang on by Lone wolf. All I own is lone wolf, top notch stands and sticks

    I have the Lone Wolf sticks. The are light, very well built and rated up to 300lb.

    I dont' think you will go wrong with either, but I love my LW sticks. Quick, sturdy and quiet... like a :ninja:

    Never tried the muddy sticks, no reason to, my LW sticks work in any tree and I've never had a problem. The Sticks and the Alpha is a great combination!

    I have a garage full of LW sticks and stands. With that being said, I also designed the Muddy sticks. The advantages compared to LW sticks are no metal bucks, two steps off either side, and they can be brought up the tree with the Muddy harness. 4 Muddy sticks will get me about the same height as 4 LW sticks. Just space them out a bit in-between, use both hands on both steps, and it's simple.

    Use what you want, but I can assure you - no-one has used the LW sticks more than myself.
