At least your priorities are all right.:eek:
If your lucky enough to break just your lower spine you will have a great phone to play games on until the rescue squad gets there.

Well I know this isnt funny, but there is a G force meter on it and it can tell me how many G's you pull falling to the ground. I will try and wear 1 but I cant see how you can shoot a deer and wear 1 at the same time.

Are you serious? Those of us on here have probably arrowed thousands of deer successfully while wearing a harness.....there is nothing to it!

And yet, another sad post! How many times I saw during this last summer that people were trying to give away some of the extra harnesses that they have accumulated from buiying new stands, and so many of you still don't wear them. Statistics would indicate that a certain percentage of you who don't wear one will fall from your treestand sometime this Fall. Hope you have a good life insurance policy so your family won't suffer a financial burden along with the grieving that they will do over their loss.

Sorry, someone had to be the one to do it!:)

Count me as an I do'er and never go up without it. Guy died across the road from our camp last week hanging a stand. He wasn't using one and fell to his death. I have two kids and a great wife. That is incentive enough to wear it.

My mothers boss while I was in college fell from his treestand while bowhunting. Nearly broke his back and shattered a ton of his ribs. He nearly died because he did not have a cell phone and had to struggle out of the woods. That made an impression on me.

Not a harness, but I do strap in when in a climber or hang-on.

I forgot to add that I am amazed by the number of you who don't. You guys are nuts.
