Two years ago, I was on an evening hunt out of my climber. I was about 25 feet....
Once the sun went down and darkness hit I decided it was time to climb down as I always do. I lower my bow, strap in my feet, and remove my harness from the tree for the quick climb down. I picked my feet up to lower my platform, and the nylon strap going over the from of my boots, broke and the platform fell about 8 - 10 feet down the tree before it caught...Just far enough there was no way for me to get to it. I pulled myself up to sit on my little 2 inch wide bar (facing the tree), held on as I was able to call a buddy to come and climb up underneath me, and bring the platform back up to where I was stuck.
I sat there for about 30-40 minutes in the dark on that little bar before he got to me. I wasn't exactly excited to be in that situation.
