I absolutely love the Lone Wolf Sticks, I have 6 of them. And in recent years they've improved how they fit together, but I've always had difficulty getting them tied down as securely to the stand as I'd like. So I promised myself that after the season I'd come up with something better than the bungie that I was using. The Camo Rachet strap I picked up from Walmart comes in a 2 pack for around $15. If camo doesn't matter they come even cheaper. I cut the excess strap and burned the end so it won't fray. This is an extremely quick hook up and in just moments those sticks are secured rock solid. I know this ain't some big deal but if you have the Lone Wolf Sticks and Stand, trust me you want to do this, it's rock solid and fast!!!

looks good. My sticks are those Summit steel ones in 5 ft sections. I'd like a set of the lightweight ones but can't have everything. I use electrical tape to bind mine up for transport but really, I don't use them that often. When I do use them, I usually carry the stand on my back and the sticks over my shoulder. At 5' long, there's no way to strap them to the stand and carry them. Because of the trouble involved, when I set them up it's usually a place I can leave them and intend to hunt repeatedly. You probably wouldn't believe some of the trees I hunted with my climber in Illinois, even osages where I've climbed and pulled the stand up behind me and the saw. ouch. ;D
