RE: no harness
Well Zekeskar, I'm about to be 27 yrs old. I've been married a couple of years and had a little boy this summer. I do have alot to live for and cherrish the time spent with family and in the woods. I do not choose to not wear the harness because of stupidity, I am fully aware of the possibilities of falling from a stand. That is why I am in the market for a harness that fits. I am too tall for the one that came with my stand. Right now I am just trying to use extreme caution when in the stand.
I never stand on the standing platform. There's no rail around it and I just don't feel comfortable standing without rails. Plus, I just don't understand how two little cables will be able to support a full grown adult. And when I say full grown I mean 300 lbs. So, when I get one I will wear it. But until then I'll have to take my chances.
Sorry to be so long winded, but good question! I am 27.
