I can't remember hearing or reading about someone falling from a treestand while wearing a full-body harness. It just confuses the heck out of me why hunters still decide to hunt from a treestand without a harness. The risk is too great not to.

With that said, I recommend a ladder stand where their is a system available to protect the hunter during ascent and descent in addition to while up in the tree.
