I started using the full body harness that came with my Summit stand last year and once I figured out how to put it on it hasn't been a problem. Don't see how it gets in the way much. Had to do a full turn facing the tree on the first deer I shot this year andit didn't get in the way. I just ducked under it. I wear it under a layer or two and put it on before I get into the woods so I can see what I am doing. I can't even tell I'm wearing it. Using that harness and my climber I feel more comfortable about going higher up.
