I would love to see more detail on the TL stick attachment if anyone has seen it anywhere

Not sure if this helps you any.

Appreciate it, but I’m not exactly sure what’s going on there. I guess I’m looking for something like Tethrd did when they came out with their system.

Even without knowing exactly what they are doing, it looks to me like the LWCG buckleless method could be an option

New Novix stick.

I am unable to understand much of any choices Novix makes anymore. How are these standoffs attached? I would think the method currently used is better and 2 bolt less to make per stick. I am assuming the standoff is tapped?

Looks to me like the stand off has a bolt and the step is welded to eliminate any flexing. I did not say its a good idea, just new.

1.9lbs each as well. Up from the previous model.

Having no standoff overlap makes no sense on a tube stick in which a standoff doesn’t turn for flat packing. They are advertising its pivoting design will conform to the tree but it’ll be a pain to align for stacking and that connection will be subject to loosening over time if it’s not some new approach to fastening.

Yeah, I don’t know what’s going on with them. I guess the inline stacking and more footroom is the selling point.

Welded and flared steps, hmmm

I think that's correct. The ATA show is for companies that want to sell through retail.
They both are at the Great American show in PA.

Figured you just buy space. LWCG has been at ATA before. They didn’t go last year.

Lonewolf use to be in Cabelas tho. Not sure if they are any more and I don’t believe Lwcg ever was
