RE: Ever fallen out of a tree?
Ummm... I know that I should be wearing a harness, and I am very carefull, but I know accidents happen. I feel very confident while in stand. Its hanging them that gets me worried. Last time I hunted archery, I did so entirely out of my climber, Summit Viper. With the bar, I am not worried about falling out. With hang-ons, I know it is possibe to do so, but haven't had any close calls.
I have a SOP that I got with my summit, but im small, and the thing is too big for me to wear. Does anyone make a harness that only goes around the waist? Not the chest like the SOP?
I will probably start hunting with a harness, no reason not to, but I am not wearing a full harness. I dont' wear a full harness when I am rock climbing 1000 feet, yes 3 zeros, above the ground. I don't need a full harness when I am in a tree stand.
