I have three safty straps. One is attached to the tree above my Loc On Limit Stand. One I use only when placing my tree steps and hanging my stand. The third is a climbing strap that came with my climbing spikes.

I always have NUMEROUS branches between the ground and my stand that it would be a noisy if not clumsey task to attach ad reattach the strap.

I like the idea of a Prussic Sling but with so many intervening branches, I can't envision how I could use it. I have several that I used during my mountain climbing past. I use the straps to put my stand up and take it down and any time I am on the stand. Going up and down I do not use a strap . . . hooking and unhooking the strap is not without its hazzards.
