Title: Time For a Reminder
Post by: Bill Kissner on November 27, 2010, 06:42:00 PM

I know there are a few on here that still do not wear a harness while treestand hunting. This can be a very dangerous situation. We have had two hunters killed in falls here in southern Illinois in the last two weeks. Please do not take the chance of your families going through what these are going through.

Had to help get a guy out that fell and broke a hip and some ribs a few years back.  That was enough to convince me to always wear mine.  Thanks for the reminder.

I've promised myself not to leave Terra Firma without my harness on.  If I ever forget to put it on or get my Prussic rope, I am ground hunting that day FOR SURE.  Every time, so I never need to decide!  
I'm not worth much... but my wife still loves me!
