    Default Reminder To All
    Been a long time since I've been on the site but with recent events I wanted to post a reminder. The deer season is only 4 days old and we've had 2 deaths one in HArford and one in Cecil County MD by falls from a tree stand, ( Not wearing saftey haness ) PLEASE!!!!! wear your safety gear.

    Stay safe

    And I will add - three points of contact going up and going down the stand.

    I heard about the one in harford, was it determined that the fall caused his death or was there another cause that caused the fall(heart attack etc)? Not saying you dont need a harness i was just wondering the situation.

    I didnt use my harness last year but am this year.

    Default To think I'm old enough
    to remember when many survived tree stands, without being able to parachute with a safety harness from 12,000 feet.
