    I am interested in hearing your opinion after you try it out. I have seen the ads, but always thought it looked uncomfortable. Keep us posted.......

    One of the forums said that it is only uncomfortable is it doesn't fit correctly or worn wrong.

    I looked at them a few years ago and passed. I think you are limited on what you can cover and shoot, while wearing one. I think it would involve an awful lot of movement to get turned around to shoot in a different direction.

    That idea has been around for a least 30 years..... I use a climbing harness as my safety sling, it is great putting steps in. I am not sure I would want to hang, for 4 hours on stand. The compression on you hips would be rather uncomforable.

    Might come in handy if you are doing drives, when you are taking a short stand.

    If you watch the videos on the website, you can see all of the "resting" positions that you can adjust to if you are getting uncomfortable. I have spoke with others guys on a hunting forum and its 50/50 as loving it or hating it. I hunt all public land so its got to be worth a try.
