I have a dilemma of sorts.
The only reason I don't have these at my stands already is that I am afraid they would get stolen. If I take it down each time to prevent theft, then obviously it won't be there to protect me next time I climb the tree. I guess I should write off the hundred bucks and value my life and health more.
Take the chance on it getting swiped - beats the chance of falling. You can buy these systems pre-made as Davidmil posted for $40. Or you can go to Home Depot and buy it for half that. It's worth the price either way you go.
