Which safety harness, Please reply.
I was getting ready to order a safety harness from cabela' s, as my family says they worry about me just wearing a belt, and would like me strapped in alot better. I have narrowed it down to two choices, the seat of the pants, or the new vest that cabela' s is carrying. Which one would you choose and why? I want one that is easy to use, and not a pain as far as tangling up goes. Thank you all, Bhunter32.

Seat of the Pants

I switched from a harness to the vest set up and love it. It is far more comfortable as far I am concerned. I feel just as safe in that as I do my resuce harness that I wear at the firehouse! If that isnt safe than I dont know what is!!:D

I would like to get a seat o the pants after reading about them here. On Cabela' s web site they list several products: snap ring harness, climbing system and a safety harness. I' m a little confused as to which one to get? The snap ring harness looks the same as the safety harness but is cheaper?

SOP. I haven' t had it save me yet, but I feel comfy while wearing it.

I would go with the Hunter saftey system.. why??? because you dont have to hassle with all those straps.. you just open it up and buckle it.. plus mine has a reversible orange side so no worrying about not packing my orange cause I have on on my saftey vest..

seat of the pants.works great.
go deep hunt hard.;) |
RE: Which safety harness, Please reply.
Seat of the pants gets my vote, they also make a vest to use with the seat of the pants harness.

ught the seat of the pants last year and i wouldn' t trade it for anything.When screwing in steps put the rope around the tree and snap it back into the harness.It' s comfortable and easy to put on .It' s great

I' ve had the SOP for about 4 years now and still say it' s one of the best. I first saw the Hunter' s Safety System (the same as the Cabela' s) last year. Now I got a pretty good look at one just the other day. It' s quality stuff. The one thing it does not have is D-rings on the waist area. These come in mighty handy when putting up steps, climbing sticks and/or hanging stands. Just one thing to consider. No matter which you get it' s still cheap life insurance where I come from.

You can put clothes on, and take them off with your harness on. You can put it on over your light shirt and if you need to add a coat as the sun goes down you dont have to unhook, or take it off. Great for installing tree stands, and you dont even notice your wearing it....... |

Seat of the Pants. Only way to go!
Good Luck! |

I fell 3 years ago while wearing a safty belt, now I won' t climb a tree without my seat of the pants. Best hunting investment I ever made.

RE: Which safety harness, Please reply.
seat o the pant ,hands down the best , there is even a vest you can buy , to snap it into , but it' s easy to use and comfortable !

I use the full body harness that came with my API stand. It has alot of buckles and straps but works well after we get used to it.

RE: Which safety harness, Please reply.
i have a seat of the pants, works great, but a pain to put on in the dark. bought a vest last month(reversable) feels great, not to bad to get into in the dark, only drawback is, it is a one time deal. fall once and it has paid for itself.

RE: Which safety harness, Please reply.
I just bought the vest this year for my son who is new to hunting. Easy to use, the lenght of the straps took a while to figure out but now that we have a system, He doesn' t know it is on and I am confortable that my boy is safe. I don' t know what a seat of the p[ants looks like but it is all about safety first and comfort second. I use a belt and know I should use more but I just don' t like being confined.

SOP!!!!!

RE: Which safety harness, Please reply.
I hate my safety harness It rides up to high on my shoulders. I have kind of crappy belt with shoulder crossovers. It is to the point where I took the shoulder straps off and just use it like the safety belt. Is there anything with quick release that is easy on/off that doesn' t get tangled in a knot?
