HIGHDESERTWOLF, lighten up dude, you sure assume a lot without knowing who you are responding to, I've had a lot of conversation's with Dr Mike and I feel he's a standup guy with probably more wood's savy than you and I put together,he's involved with a hunting tv serie's and maybe he just need's some info to try to educate treestand hunter's, it's amazing how many treestand injurie's there are each season and anything that will help make stand hunting safer is welcome !
