working with it some the past couple days and can't get it setup not to rattle some...I have the kwik straps but it seems there is no good way to pack the seat to the platform without rattling.
am I missing some obvious way to pack it ??

Re: how to pack the lone wolf sit climber?
i don't own one but i would put the 3way bungee through the bow holder and wrap it up around the seat and hook it deep on the platform so its tight. Then cinch down the stabilizer straps crosswise to snug it some more....or add regular bungee's..Are you packing just the stand by itself? Or adding other gear to it?

other gear to it
just a jacket or overalls, nothing real heavy

i can only think that your bungee may not be tight enough....maybe adding clothes under it will help snug it up, but you may need a new bungee

Re: how to pack the lone wolf sit climber?
found a good video here, I think I was not positioning the sit bar correctly...

Re: how to pack the lone wolf sit climber?
I position mine like the video but I connect my bungee differently, I put the two hook ends in the brush holes (in the corners) at the end of the platform and attach the plastic hook onto the black platform crossbar
I then pack any additional clothing (mid layers and outer jacket) under the bungee straps for the walk in so I dont overheat.
I have also put some tape on the seat bar so it doesnt make metal noise against the platform

Re: how to pack the lone wolf sit climber?
I don't use any bungee and it packs quiet. I use the stabilizer straps in a cross pattern if I recall correctly, been a while since I used that stand. The sit bar is the only thing that could make any noise, but mine is tight enough that it doesn't swing freely.
