I wear mine cuz i sleep alot on the stand. No but seriously i have a lot of people who care about me such as my family and beautiful girlfriend that expect me to come home and the end of the hunt. I have never fallen but have had some close calls in the past and dont care to get scared like that again. I have leaned on one side of the top part of my climber and it slide down to the platform.I almsot fell with no harness. Thats was the last straw for me. I can say i have gone the whole season with my harness on this year.
