I can't imagine not wearing one. As far as the difficulty getting up the tree while wearing one, or them being hard to put on, you can't be serious. If so, maybe you shouldn't be in a tree at all.
And it's not the stand components I'm worried about, its me. If you think your beyond making that kind of mistake........wake up.......your not!
Opening day fatality:
Calhoun Co. man falls from deer stand, dies
October 01, 2008 at 09:06 AM[/align]BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS[/align]HARDIN—A Calhoun County man fell to his death from his deer stand.
Deputy Coroner Phil Gress says Duane Swan was found dead Tuesday night behind his home near Hardin.
Gress says Swan’s wife told him that her husband went to work on his deer stand on a bluff that afternoon but didn’t return home after it became dark.
The wife apparently called Swan’s parents, who went to the deer stand and found their son’s body.
Gress said he did not yet have Swan’s exact age, but thought it was 41.
“He lived from the end of one deer season to the next and he died doing something he loved,” said his mother Virginia Swan
