Great review, I've probably watched all your stand related clips now and trying to decide between .5 .75 and 1.0 for a stand. Turned out saddle hunting doesn't work too great for me just like you said, hanging on the ass hammock makes me shifting and fiddling + the tree is filling half the view. I'm 5'11", somewhat overweight but fairly agile. Size 12 foot and hunting down to 0F or bit lower. Sole of my boot does fit on the .75 sideways, mainly I worry if the cables get too narrow to stand up close to tree and lean for a bit if I want to.
I think the .75 is a half inch wider than the beast stand so it's not very bad. The 1.0 I just bought has more room between the cables than my lw assault does! I love love love the 1.0
I have a comparison video on the 1.0 on my channel and a full review coming soon
The weight makes a huge difference period
great! I dont agree but appreciate that it is important to you.
What is the closest stand you can buy now to a Lone Wolf Assault 2?
Lone wolf custom gear 1.0 or xop vanish
Great review. The only issue with these stands is the cost. I just cant justify changing from my Assaults to either of these options because of the cost. Bottmoline, Im not going to see more or kill more or bigger bucks with either of these stands.
And honestly I personally believe the assault is the best stand ever make. I dont think anything today is better. If novix brought back the original assault design I would sell all my other stands and buy 2 of them.
Just bought a 1.0 on Black Friday and saved $100, bought a 4 pack of XOP X3's for $140 at the same time, they stack together with the slide lock clips and I have them attached to the stand with J-hooks. Weighs in at 20.8lbs even with the full size sticks!
Tip for the Side lock Clips. File the corners down . They will cut everything you own to Pieces. Car Seats, straps, Hands, . I know from Experience
I took mine off and went with Jason's Pool noodle Idea and stack them with two B straps
sounds like a beautiful system!
Hard to beat the simplicity and function of the pool noodle!
@@SamkoTradBowI’ll be waiting for that video on your new 1.0 stand and sticks!!
@Wiscobowhunt if I can make a stand happen I might. Sticks will always me my original lone wolf full size. I'm not a fan of mini sticks
Sold my Beast and have used the 1.0 and 3 double sticks for 2 years. Love it and it’s a great system. They also make 32 inch sticks if you want longer ones.
Hopefully I can get a 1.0 soon.
A lwcg stand paired with their sticks is unbeatable on ease of packability and no rattle the way they mount onto the stand and only use the stands buckle strap to hold them on was some great thinking.
Lots of great features in this stand. Very impressed
You did a video on cargo trailers that featured Rhino Safari’s. You got any idea why I can’t find them anywhere?
I believe they went out of business after the covid part shortages like many others did.
@@SamkoTradBow damn, that was a nice trailer. Can't find one used.
@@Vnachi8 I still use that trailer today. Love it
You won’t find a better stand than the lone wolf custom gear line. My .75 is amazing. One of the best features are those T post tie offs.
They sure have some great design features and a size to fit everyone's needs.
I've been toe hooking treestands for almost 40 years and I've never had a problem I'm also an ironworker and I do rigging for a living the first thing you learn is never bounce your rigging so in my opinion stomping your tree stands into the tree to get it to bite is dumber than doing the toe hook
I may not of been an iron worker. But I bet there are less that 5% of people in the word that hang as many tree stands as I do and have. And I think toe hooking is an un necessary failure in stand design. And as you are gonna start seeing more this year with new stands coming out. Many feel the same way. If a stand has to be toe hooked it's a failure and designed wrong.
@@SamkoTradBow I would agree with it being a bad design it would be nice if we didn't have to do any of that but it is what it is people need to realize to make sure the strap is at a 90 the platform's level and the post is plumbed before you get in it at all so no matter which method you use always tie off and be safe and have fun out there thanks for the videos
@@mongo-tx7vy Very well said.
I got the novix helo and 4 32” sticks for $100 less than any LWCG stand. Both stands are nice, but I’m happy with the novix gear.
Novix makes excellent gear.
It out shines the beast stand in everything but weight. It locks to the tree. Offset bracket is way better. Traction. And so on. Great job on the comparison
I'm excited to get my new 1.0 in the woods to test
You would love the 1.0. Love mine! Extra rm is nice to have and the weight is still light
Yep if I was buying a new stand today it would be a 1.0
Jason you’ll love the 1.0 it’s a great stand
Hopefully I can make it happen and get one
Just like everything else nowadays, I got sticker shocked when I looked up how much the 1.0 costs. Great looking stand and well thought out, but I bought my XOP Vanish Evolution 2.5 years ago for $150. I acknowledge the XOP stand is cast and not machined, but from what I can tell it has all the same features as the 1.0 LWCG. With inflation hitting hard, it's tough to cough up six bills for a stand that weighs a couple pounds lighter.
Agree the xop stands are fantastic and still affordable. It's hard to justify the costs of alot of stuff today. Stand, broadheads, appliances, trucks etc. It's all brutal expensive
I have a .5 and a .75 and they are the best things I have done when it comes to upgrading my stands. I use them as a pack and use the seat to store my clothing. I sit when I shoot so I don't mind the smaller platforms, and I take my oldest son with me and do double sits in a tree with him and the .5 is excellent for him to carry and sit in.
Jason, I know you love the three step sticks from the original LW I would be interested to see you get the 1.0 and a set of the newer LWCG three step sticks that integrate to the platform and see what you think of that.
Great video.
Those lwcg 3 step sticks are not available in full length anymore. I did look and was thinking about it
I didn’t know that!
You’re the reason I got the assault 2 as my first stand, but when I wanted something smaller and lighter, I went with the .5. Recently switched to the .75 because the longer platform length allows for the proper use of load lifters when used as a packframe for backpack hunts/meat hauling.
That .75 is very impressive. With me being in big snake boots all the time I feel I'm needing more width to move and spin on stand for deer. So I think the 1.0 would be the right one for me. My assault is absolutely perfect width and size.
its pretty cool we can pick from so many to fit us just right!
@@JulienKozak agree 100%
I have a .5 with a ewo 1 stick and rappel best combo ever. This is the future of mobile hunting. Now we just wait for the guys to make a cabless treestand and carbon hybrid hangon for ultimate light weight system.
Yep all depends on your needs. Mobile huntingnis all I do and with me doing over 30 all day sits a year and another 50 5-6 hour sits I want a different system so I use what a full size stand and 3 full size sticks. The extra 6 pounds means nothing to me. And most of my spots are between 1 and 2.5 miles in the swamp now that I live in the south. Its good to want light weight stuff but don't sacrifice hunt ability to save a couple pounds. Sounds like you have your system dialed in perfect for your needs.
I’ve been using the 1.0 for the last three seasons dot very satisfied! Even with the Champer, I still need to do a tow lift 90% of the time to snug it against the tree. it’s never been an issue for me though. My only real criticism with the LWC stand is that the seat pad did not even last one season.
Good info to know. Was it becuase the seat was getting ripped up? I would probably stealth strip it to protect it.
@@SamkoTradBow No, the foam flattened in no time, and would not rebound.

Lwcg stands and stick are definitely worth the $
Paracord shoulder straps I gotta try that !!
Amazing how much I like the paracord straps. Did not expect to like them this much
Beautiful background and country behind you! Love the video, good stuff!!
Thanks
I believe the 1.0 is very similar in dimensions to the lone wolf assault 2 that you love
Yes almost identical from what I'm seeing
I will say this. I don’t own a treestand, and I am a saddle hunter. It’s VERY hard for me to not buy one of those LWCG stands just to have one, and use for all day sits, and particular trees/areas that a stand would be better in.
Sure is a very well thought out and designed stand. As to be expected for the guy the originally designed the lone wolf stand 3 decades ago!
I am almost 70 and stay on the ground
Nothing wrong with that. And glad you are still out there enjoying the outdoors
I have the 1.0 I can’t see a better lock on the market! It’s incredible!
Glad to hear you love it. If I was buying a stand today it would be a 1.0
Had them all thru the years. Nothing bites the tree like a Beast stand. You never know what kinda tree you will end up in and with the beast stand I feel more confident and safer. But each is own lwcg is a nice stand my cousin had 1.0 and sold it for the beast stand. It just simply bites a tree better
The beast stand is a great stand. I love mine. But would like to try a 1.0. I need wider than the beast now that I hunt in the south and in snake boots 99% of the time
I actually like the more narrow profile of the beast stand. I find it catches less on brush, and I feel more comfortable with a longer narrow platform rather than a shorter and wider platform. I think 2 more inches of length is better than .5" of width. I think it's pretty funny that half of an inch is that important to you. I guess I would have a hard time noticing that, I know I would notice the platform length though. And I might notice if it was 8 ounces heavier, where you don't care too much about that.. 😁 I guess everyone is different! The gripping on the platform is nice. I don't notice much for slipping but I have noticed the smoothness of it sometimes leads to some squeaks on my boots if they are wet. I did add a paracord wrap on the front edge of my Beast stand instead of stealth strips. I feel like it helps deadens any small noises on the stand and it also provides a raised edge on the front stand so you can feel where you are at on the stand without looking down. Absolutely love my beast stand! That being said, I would love to try out a LWCG 1.0 or .75 and do some rigorous testing on them!
Yep many great stands out there to fit everyone's needs. I love my beast stand. But after 2 years in it all it took was one sit in my assault (3 inches wider I think) for me to fall in love with the extra width again. A half inch wouldn't matter much to me but 3 inches is a big difference. For me if I were buying a stand today it would be a lwcg 1.0.
Really like my .75. The pack abilities are amazing ! I just got mine in October and probably have 30 sets in it, have been comfortable most of the time, longest set was probably 5 hours. Like I said before, for long periods on stand my Assault 2 is great! If you get the 1.0 you will love it! Be sure to make a video when you get it!
If something happens and I can get a 1.0 I will for sure do some videos on it.
Does the lwcg have an feature to lock it into a seated position to use as a chair for ground hunting? I thought I read somewhere that was a feature.
The seat locks into the platform to create a load shelf for packing out game bags or gear. I do not believe it creates a seat for ground use.
Stands?? 😂 You should definitely try saddle hunting...it's da BOMB! 👍
"Aero" Joe
Saddles are not for me
Does the cushion on the lone wolf flip over to the other side?
I dont believe it does. Your thinking like the xop seat does I don't believe the lwcg does. But it does lock into the platform to make a laod shelf
Good Comparison. Time to buy a lone wolf...
Great stand. If I was buying a new stand today it would be the 1.0
I have the .5 LWCG it works best for me with the costume seat post sizes and seats you can't beat it. I think it's the best you can get! You can go wrong with .5 .75 1.0 they are all great stands. Hopefully they will have the gift cards again for 100.00 off this Christmas!! Great video Jason Merry Christmas
Sure looks like a great stand! Merry Christmas.
I just had heart failure looking at the $😂😂
Yep all this stuff is just awful stupid expensive
@@SamkoTradBow like white glass. 🤣🤣🤣
Just finished my first season with my .75 and it went flawless. Outstanding tree stand quality is top notch comfy enough for me. Hunted out of a saddle for the previous 7 years and I definitely prefer my .75. Paired with latitude sticks and this is a crazy light and durable stand. I watched Michigan great outdoors on his reviews for the custom gear stand and then pulled the trigger happy I did. Don't miss my saddle at all.
Sure seems like a great stand! Many impressive features and very similar to my original lw assault.
Hey, if you buy the 1.0.....can you give me your other stands? After all it is almost Christmas😂
😂😂
Welcome to the darkside 😂😂😂
It sure is a sweet stand. I dont need a new stand as I have the beast and 2 assaults and an alpha. But if I were to buy a new stand it would be the 1.0
@@SamkoTradBow Just get rid of the beast and assaults. Keep the alpha and a .75 or 1.0.
I like having the two extremes for the basic needs, mobile and all day.
I have a .5 for quick mobile hybrid hunting. Use a saddle as my harness. Usually only a stick or two high. (lwcg double step sticks pack on it like a dream)
I also have the LW Alpha with footrests and a novix mesh seat for long sits. I have badly degraded discs in my back from work, so this helps a lot with being able to sit. It's still mobile enough that I can hang and hunt. I use this with various climbing methods (bolts, sticks, steps, etc) Usually reserved for all day sits and sometimes late season for the extra space while wearing more clothes.
They are different enough to justify having both but similar enough that the system works the same.
@mrd4865 sounds like a couple great systems perfectly dialed in for what you need.
Please don’t become another LWCG fanboy 🤣.
😂😂
I was hoping you never did this. The lone wolf custom gear blows the beast gear out the water, both expensive but not even close for features. Quality maybe the same but I think custom still better. And I don’t own either and probably never will can’t afford it but you can just see it. I’m still running the assault and I’ll probably have to for a long time
Both are excellent stands. But honestly I don't think any stand is worth buying if you already have an assault. I want to try a lwcg 1.0 but since I already own 2 assault stands that are basically identical I can't justify buying the 1.0. I'm retired and have to watch my money. But if I can swing or find a deal on one I might try to get one. But I would ve 100% OK hunting the rest of my life in an assault.
