    With this season all but over I've been starting to look ahead. What worked what didn't and what I want to upgrade. First thing up is my safety harness. Right now I have a gorilla g30. It's pretty bulky and I hate that I lose access to pockets when wearing it on top and its just flat uncomfortable underneath. Liking the looks of the elite. I see a potential problem with late season wearing really bulky clothes underneath but looks like a solid unit otherwise. Anyone use it? Anything to add?

    Never used the one your asking about...but I did buy a Tree Spider Micro Harness and used it all this year. Love that thing! Very light and comfortable.

    I have been looking at the muddy as well but thought this was a neat harness. Got to see one yesterday and its a no go for me on this one. It doesn't have loops to hook a lineman belt to. I hunt a portable with LW sticks and the use off a lineman belt is pretty important to that process.

    Bought an elite right before season and loved it! You don't even realize its a harness once it's on because it functions so well as a vest too. As for heavy clothes the spandex like section in the back expands to allow for bulky clothes but keeps its slim fit. Overall a fantastic piece of equipment! Also it does accept a line mans belt the loops are under the vest. Mine even came with a free line mans belt
