Safety Reminder

Just a reminder to be careful in the woods. My oldest son's friend, an experienced hunter at age 20, fell out of his climber this afternoon and crushed his C7 vertebrae. The doctor apparently said it was a complete miracle that he wasn't at least partially paralyzed. Yeah, the harness is a pain in the rear, but it's still the right thing to do to use it. So thankful his friend will apparently be ok.

Always have one or two every year. Hope he recovers well.
Stay safe out there.

Started wearing a harness this year. Second day of bow season I tripped on the ladder when I was 10 feet up. I was thankful for the equipment. Even though it would not likely be fatal, I cant risk broken bones.

Totally, i hunt alone so I don't have anyone to make sure I come out the woods. Have to leave a float plan for the woods with the old lady

Amen! If you don't have a safety harness, consider a Muddy and also try a lifeline - you are hooked up from the time you step on the ladder till you step off the ladder.
