Default one more warning

Well today I decided to go out behind my house and hang a stand, I was using screw in treesteps.I get up about 15 feet and had just finished a step.I stepped up on that step and my foot slipped and down the tree i went.Unfortunately I didnt have a harness on.No serious injuries thank god, just a headache and a bunch of scrapes.I deicded im not using screw in treesteps any more.I went up the tree took out every last one and left the woods thankful. I am going to try to save up enough money for either a climber or some climbing sticks.I dunno though, all i know is im not hanging any more treestands with screw in treesteps. So im in the market for a used reasonably priced climmber.Always be safe and always wera a safety harness, take it from me and i know mine could have been worse but from now on things are giong to be different
