A harness does little good..as you can't use it until your up to the top.unlike the climber..I had a harness on me..I still wouldn't risk it..
The first 15 foot you can't use the harness anyways....then we are to stand up on top ..wrap the rope around the tree..shaking like a leaf I'm sure..no sir,,,just an accident awaiting to happen as far as I'm concerned..I'm too big , fat and old to take such chances...PLUS..you are very limited on positions you can actually shoot..then we got to turn around...untie the rope..and pray to God the metal doesn't bend..LOL not for me ever..
