    What type of safety strap/harness do you use?

    Just curious what everyone else uses. I bought one of the Hunters Safety System full vest harness about 4 years ago and I love it. Going to pick one up for my son this week

    I use the same thing. I've also used the Seat-o-the-pants and like that as well. My vest can be a little warm for early season bow hunting, but I don't even know it's on once I get it strapped up.

    I use the one that came with my new Summit stand. It is functional, and works as it is supposed to, but thats about all I have to say for it.

    I am wanting to get a Body Armour gadget vest. Look them up, they look to be a good vest and I liked the one I tried on.

    I used to use the same thing, but they recalled a bunch of them a couple years back and mine was one of them that was recalled because the strap was breaking if you ever actually used them. Unfortunately I had ripped off the tag so I couldn't get a new one so I bought the vest and it's so much easier to use and more comfortable.

    I just bought (2) new HSS pro series last week. One for myself, and one for my son. I like them so far.

    It hurt pretty bad at the check-out register. But, I know it's money well spent.

    HSS Pro series for me and my son. Expensive but I think my life and my son's life is worth $400.

    Loggy Bayou's transformer harness. $89, lot cheaper than most others. I love mine! I have one of the original prototypes and just ordered a new one for my son, the new ones are even better.

    +1 My son had a stand fail, has a broken back from his fall and is lucky not to be paralized.

    I had a really close call a couple weeks ago. The seat on my climber wasnt seated good (my fault, long story) and when I stood up and sat back down, it fell as did I. I landed on the foot platform and my harness kept me from falling headfirst over the side. It didnt break strap, just got taught and kept me from going over. Pretty scary staring straight down from 25' up. Had I not had my harness, I am certain I wouldnt be typing here right now.

    I am a 100% firm believer in safety harnesses.
