    I know its not on of the two, but Muddy makes a great light weight harness.

    Between the Gorilla and the Tree Spider, I would choose the Tree Spider. Like Bowfreak said check out the Muddy lightweight harness, very good safety harness.

    I too have been looking for a new harness. I"m not really in the market for one though unless I find one I really like. So far, the only ones that have caught my eye are the Spider's and the new HSS ultra light harness. I must have a harness I can wear under my clothing and not know its there. My SOP harness has been just that.

    The spider is very well made, comfortable and will clip into their newer Scent Blocker jackets. Don't know about the others

    I wear my Muddy under my outer layer and do not realize it's there. I'll always recommend a Muddy to someone in the market for a harness.
