I have not used a hang on in a long time. I about fell out of one five or so years ago and have not used on since. Been in ladders ever since then. I feel much better in them and can climb better. I have four ground blinds but like being up in the tree. But when in a blind I can sit in comfy chair alot longer then in ladder. Have only ever done all day hunts in blind, ladder is about four or five hours max and I am restless and sore.
