Hunter safey system vest

Ifly · 07-05-2005, 11:17 AM

Has anyone tried this vest? It's a vest saftey harness combo and thinking about ordering one. Would be a lot faster getting in and out of than the seat of pants type saftey harness I use.
Just checking to see if they are made strong..etc.
Thanks for any info.

I bought one last year and think they are the only way ot go, I got really tired of trying to unravel a regular safety harness in the dark before climbing up, I got mine and love it, It is a little heave and warm in the early season, but this year they are offering it in a new cooler mesh version, and Ill probably get one of those for early. They also have a few handy pockets on them, and seem to be made very well.

Angus is right, it is the easiest harness to put on and use. They are a little warm for bow season, but that new version with the mesh sure looks good. Too bad they didn't come out with the mesh first, looks like I will be getting that one as well- may need to sell my original one.
Try one on, you'll throw rocks at the others!

I also got one and would never go back. They are great to use.
The only complaint I would have is they use a seat belt hook together device and it sometimes rubs together or they hit each other as you are putting it on. But at least you know it won't break!
Well worth the money to own one!!

I just purchased one but have not been in a tree with it yet. Seem to be very well built. The straps are heavy duty along with the buckles.

Thanks for all the info..I planned on getting the mesh style..specially here in fl. heat.
I had thought of the vest idea several yrs. before it came out..but as my other almost inventions I didn't do anything but think about it.
Like the foot peddle toilet seat raiser, the commercial exstension cord connector and for anyone who would like to really get rich..the yet to be invented Directional Gobble Locator.
I almost forgot..does the strap that goes around the tree come with it?

I have one and would never use anything else! It is absoutly awesome. Quick to put on and comfortable as all get up. I give it a 10 out of 10.

I have the reversable one, which serves it's purpose quite well here in PA!
