Thanks for the help...yea my stand is pretty easy to fall out of i'd say so i refuse to use it even once without one...

I could write a book on this subject, but to save you I'll make it short, if you hunt above six ft, yes I said six ft your at risk, the higher you go well the worse it's goning to be should you hit the ground ! Rear attachment harnesses should be renamed rear attachment DEATH harnesses. I've got a video coming out soon that will give you some insight to fall protection, made for bowhunters, remember it's all about self rescue !

I enjoy deer hunting too much to risk never being able to pursue it in the future, I will never climb a tree without a good saftey harness. The one I have came with my summit viper, and I am sure there are better ones to be had, but it seems to be suficiant. it is also TMA certified, with means it has gone through some extensive testing in order to get the tag.
I hunt from 20' and up and a fall like that is certain to put a damper on my hunting future. its just not worth it. besides, murphy bowhunts too. a lot!
