Default Tree stand safety

Many places have started their bow seasons with others about to start. I just wanted to remind everyone to use caution when using tree stands. I read somewhere that there is a 1 in 4 chance that tree stand hunters will have a fall sometime in their lives. I started to use the newer style harness system and won't sit in a stand without a safety belt. Just something to remind everyone that safety comes first.
