RE: % of hunters not using a harness
I dont use one - never have - and I have taken a fall out of a stand...was climbing down so I dont think the normal "use while sitting in the stand" harness would have helped but one that comes down with you would ahve helped.

RE: % of hunters not using a harness
I really didn't know what to expect as far as a percentage.I was hoping that 50% was lower than normal but apparently 50% may be high overall.
I really have only ever hunted with 4 different guys. I'm the only one that does not use a tree stand but of the other 4 all use a harness.

I'd say it's 100% of the dumb ones! Too many people are killed or paralyzed each year from falling out of stands and I love my wife and kids too much to do that to them.
