    More than likely because of cost. I use the ones that come with stands when hanging stands.

    I got the Gorilla vest at Bass Pro for $60. I like it way better than the ones that come with the stands!

    I think they do it because it is the law to supply one so they include one that will work but they dont care how comfortable it is

    Thats what I got and I couldn't be happier. I agree that the ones that come with the stands are complete garbage.

    I bought the Big Game EZ On safety harness and love it so far. It's a little heavy but kept me a lot warmer too that way. They sell for $90 but sportsmans guide has them for $40. Great deal.

    Thanks for all the input guys. I will definitely check out the HSS & Muddy harnesses. Did you guys buy yours online or from a retailer like Cabelas? I typically like to support the smaller town sport shops instead of the big retailers, but wasn't sure if I could get one ordered from there or not.

    I got a HSS and love it. This will be my 3rd season using it. I 'll be looking at there new ones next year (ultra-lite or ultra-lite x-treme). I wear mine under my jacket. I think I bought mine online at cabelas. I look for the best deal and sadly the local shop isn't always the best nor do they always have what I want. Sometimes they can order it tho.

    I upgraded this year to the Big Game, They were on sale for $35 at Menards. I tried my sons HSS and it seams to rub on my neck to much. He loves it though. so, to each there own.
    I use the ones that came with the stands as spares. I hang each one at a treestand for anyone I bring out that either doesnt have one or forgot theirs.
