Seems like that's how you would connect it then in those cases but I'd imagine you'll want to pull it off to the side at the top some so it doesn't interfere with shooting.
You don't use these with a climber, they are intended for a hang on or ladder stand. Matter of fact, I can't even think of a way you could use one with a climber. For a climber, you need a restraint that attaches to your safety vest (whatever type) and around the tree. As you progress up the tree, you move the restraint up with you.
