This strap(1 of 2)holds a stick step up I used when setting up a stand. I was taking GR8 advice and doing a little running and gunning. I was setting up where I have never hunted before. I got the stand setup, but did not like the position. So I lowered my safety rope down and climbed back on to the stick step. Started to adjust stand and pop is what I heard. Next thing I know my gonads are lodge in my ass, and I am hanging in the tree. I was able to pull my self up and swing over to one of my steps.

Man I love my safety systems I used a full body harness.

Great testament. Glad you're OK.

Then why did you wink Goat boy

Yeah Gary ....praise GOD you are ok!!! After the phone call, my wife was like, "who is that?" after I told her the story, she gave me 3rd degree about what I use, is my harness as good as Gary's .....blah blah blah ..... I still can't understand how that strap snapped like that....

At least I can tell my wife now after your post that my belt wontlodge my gonads in my arse .... lol!!

I see how it broke, the latch has "teeth" on it to hold it. I was messing with the position of it just before it went snap. It cut it a bit and the rest just went. I will be replacing all those straps.

Glad you were wearing it big boy its good you posting this, maby it will open up some eyes now pull them nads back out you big sissy [8D]

OUCH!!!! Too much information.

Could have ruined your Holloween man. They are a great thing.

Thats pretty amazing that the strap broke like that! What kind of strap was it????? Glad you were wearing your harness, good job!

Good thing, most think that it will never happen to them. I always wear a strap...never leave home without it.

Glad your alright man, ive always been worried about my straps breaking so I bought a hunter safety system
