I hear you TEmbry..the evening I shot my doe this fall I had my bottom platform slide all the way down the tree as I got to the top and pulled my feet out of the climbing stirrups. It wasa little freaky. I had to undo my harness and barehug the tree and slide down to get my feet back in the stirrups and climb back up using my upper body strength to get back to my seat portion. Once I got settled I arrowed my doe 30 min later
