With the seasons fast approaching be sure to check your stands . inspect them for cracks in welds ,loose or missing bolts and nuts . Dont forget the straps ,chains and cables . repair or replace any worn parts . Also if you hunt from a stand please wear a Safety harness . Also if using a climber be sure to have the bottom attached to the top .
I once had the bottom of my climber kick loose while up about 25' .Thank fully I was wearing the old belt style device .It was very painful around my chest and underarms .This was back when I was 20 pounds lighter and 15yrs younger . The harnesses would definitely be less painful . Hunt safe and good luck this season .
