Rock climbing harness for bow hunters? 

The harness I've been using for years is the Black diamond alpine BOD amzn.to/3PhhUwi

I really like how you use lineman rope and transitioned it to safety. That’s really cool and minimizes amount of items!

I came across your channel about a year ago and really enjoy your content!!! I believe we are kindred spirits with the way we like our equipment and our mod ideas. I’m thinking about transitioning from compound to traditional this year. After 25yrs of contemplating I’ve gotten into the saddle game. However I still am a little bit uncomfortable shooting out of it so I run a hybrid system a lot with an old school WindWalker. When I use it with my saddle I find it to be a little redundant and takes minimalistic goal out of things and I find myself wanting to do what you’ve done here. Keep the saddle for the saddle setup and the rock climbing harness for the stand. Thanks for another good video!!!

I'm moving from a traditional harness to the TX5 minimalist this coming season. Great explanation!

Been doing this for years. Lot safer than the behind the back

I've been using the same rock climbing harness for years with a Lok-on Limit stand with sticks or drill and bolts and really like it. I like the way your lineman's belt works.

Now all you need is 40-60 ft of rope, 2 carabiners, mad rock belay, hand ascender and you can limit noise to ascend tree, wont need sticks, only platform, rope doubles as gear ropes, using a canopy(apline) knot you use the rope for the fifth hitch allowing a simple pull of rope when back on ground. Entire kit(with saddle stand) is about 10 lbs. I use a recurve so there isnt any fatigue whatsoever. Important fpr me as I broke my back in a Blackhawk crash in 07. The fact the heaviest single item in my pack is a 1 qt canteen. I'm thinking about making a video, as I just seen dudes using sticks and lineman rope(not needed) and lock ons. My method was designed and tailored to me due to my disability. Added benefits are ease of deployment in dark conditions without use of any light, stealth, ease of exfil of tree while maintaining 100% noise discipline, equipment fits in a small ruck and single rope technique allows easy retrieval of items in dark.

Thanks for the video! Hope you keep creating more content

I use the petzl falcon mountain harness, more comfortable than any saddle I've had

Thanks for the video. I’ve been wanting to get in to saddle hunting for a few years but did not want to spend the money for a setup when I had old rock climbing kit. Your video helped me a lot!

"O" for open (aka D for dead), gotta double back that buckle so it looks like a "C" for closed.

Do you have a link for the d loops you use for your lineman’s belt?

Your supposed to double loop your belt buckle dude. Read the instructions. That belt is going to slip off of you. Always check your gear your harness. It'll hurt when you fall.

What size harness did you buy? Thanks

Who is the brand of the climbing rope?

Where can you find the rope

Do you have any concerns regarding shock trauma in a fall arrest?

Dude you would slide straight down the tree if your stand fell, you are not tied to the tree, a tether tied with a hitch is totally safe, numerous hitches that are easy to tie

Intrigued. Are those delta links you are using for linesman loops?

Who makes that harness and we're did you get it at

How are you attaching the linesman loops onto the harness? Seems like any available climbing harness in my area has no D loops.
