    Well since this has been the topic of the past couple days I figured I would point out this web-site I just found. I was looking in a hunting magazine and stumbled upon this product and seen it's produced maybe 15 miles from my little ol small town... The logic seems good behind the product, but the price doesnt....

    Very interesting. I believe the safety lifeline manufactured my various companies is a good idea and much cheaper. I may catch flack for this but a good harness and strap combined with a linesman belt is as far as I am willing to go though.

    I understand what you are saying. I do believe however that this is something that will eventually be picked up by the big name companies, HSS, Muddy, etc... one time or another??
    Its a great concept, but I believe it can be ALOT cheaper!!

    The only thing it fails to overlook is, attached properly to the tree, you should never fall below a level you can't climb back into your treestand from in the first place.

    I agree, awesome concept...and if the price was $100 less, it would sell awesome I'd think.

    I've seen that before, very good idea for sure. I'll be using a prussic knot lifeline this year on all of my stands, and like Trevor said, making sure your tie off height is right, you should usually be able to get back on the platform.

    Good looking system. Not something I can justify buying at this time.

    Once you guys actually hold the harness and see the quality of its build you'll realize the reason for the price, it's light years ahead of a standard full body harness. A fully body safety harness is nothing more than a bunch of very inexpensive webbing sewed together, thus the reasoning for there low price that everyone is used to.
