A how much do the motorcycle straps things cost. I really am going to go get some becuase i like that ideo but are the strong enough to hold the ladders on.

RE: Hang-on Stand Safety Question
Thank you hardcore. But i think i am not the only one that does not use a tree harness,but as many stands as i set up i do not really have the time. I mean i know you should have the time for safty but i do not. I usally only have one day to set up stands as many sports as i play. I mean i play sport year around, but i do archery and hunt other things during the summer.

I don't use a safety harnass when putting up a 15' ladderstand, I don't really know how you would. I do have my wife steady the ladder while I am hooking the ratchet strap around the tree.When installing climbing sticks and a hangon though, I use a summit seatopants vest with a summit linesmans rope with a prussic knot so that I can work hands free for attaching the lone wolf sticks and the lone wolf hangon. Makes the job way easier and faster,not to mention way safer.

I used to not use one when I was younger. Maybe I am just wising up as I get older...

Gut Check--have you used those tree stands already, or are they just your spares! I couldn't even if I tried keeping my stands, climbing sticks and webbing straps that CLEAN--and I do try.
Great equipment those Lone Wolf stands & sticks.
As for the idea with the cycle net--I'll get me some of those. It's a great idea.
