RE: Treestand Safety Question
Well for one thing, trees don't growthat fast.
I use hang - ons too one has a strap the other a chain, with the strap once you have it up in your tree do a safety check every time you get in it.
Make sure the strap is thight and if it had streached just tighten back up get in your stand, if it feels wobblely or unstable make some adjustments.
You don't have to worry to much with the chain kind once you havethose good and tight , they'll stay that way all season.
For a little extra added safety I'll use some rachet straps for the bottom part near the platform on each stand.
You can find those at any sporting good store or where they sell sporting goods.
I hope all this information helps you and others that read it, good luck and be safe out there.
May God Bless each and everyone of us this fall season and everyday.
