Safety Harness

Buckeys question to Gagirl on another thread got me to wondering. My brother fell 22 ft a couple years ago, but a safety harness wouldn't have helped. He was climbing down and slipped, luckily 4 hours later he walked out of the hospital just bruised and scraped up. So, how many of you guys and gals use some kind of safety harness?

Now if I was in the same woods as taco I would have a whole different kind of fear.... I would probably have to use a cast iron fryin pan strapped to my butt.[:D]
If huntin' is a sport, then your lookin at an athlete- T-shirt
Gun bans have never accomplished anything, other than to create a safe working environment for criminals.
39 and counting...
i use a climber that has a wrap around bar in the front so i don't use any kind of harness at all.

Bar or no bar you can fall. My brother in laws huntin buddy fell well actually woke as he was going over that bar and was able to grab it as he feet went over his head. It can still happen, probably not as likely but can happen.

That being said I use my harness going up, down and while at hunting height everytime. Maybe that makes me a chicken, but I plan to be hunting for many years to come.

Wear one once I get up. Tried using it while climbing (screw in steps) but found it was safer to hold onto the steps than let go to move/attach the safety strap every few feet.
