Lone Wolf safety harness- Need help

[Strutter]

I got a new Lone Wolf safety harness from a generous member (Thanks again Varmint), but have no idea how it goes together.  It has a D ring with a rope and 2 loops that came with it.  The harness itself goes on easily enough but the ends that wrap around your legs have a hook on each end and I can't figure out where to hook the hooks.  I hope someone has one and knows what I am talking about cause I would like to use this harness but I want to have it on the right way. I use one nearly everyday at work but they have hooks and buckles and are easy to get into and out of.  I assume this one will be when I figure it out.  Anyway, thanks for any info and a pic of where the hooks attach would be great if anyone has one.

the hooks you mention don't have a "mate" . the strap the hook is attached to is for your legs. if you put the harness on correctly from the start you will notice the these legs straps hang in front of you. most others safety harness have the leg straps hanging from the rear. so, in reverse you will take the hook end of the strap and wrap it around your leg and bring the hook end up to your waist and hang the hook (be sure you are coming between your body and the harness with the hook) on the harness. the hook will be facing out and will be situated in the spot where several other straps are sewed together.

clear as mud, im sure.

it's not a fancy harness but it does work and I actually use it more than any other harness I have. it goes on fairly quick

Thanks for the info BFinegan.  I tried it on like you described and it works.  Not to sure about the way the hooks attach though.  May get a couple more caribiners like the one that came with it and use them in place of the hooks and attach them where you described. Be a little more secure I think as they couldn't come loose like the open hooks could.  I'll probably try it out and see how it feels before making any changes, if any.  Thanks for replying, I appreciate it.

cinch the straps snug but not tight and they will stay in place. i've walked decent ways into my stand and in some thick cover and they have yet to come unhooked. infact they can be a pain in the ass to get unhooked when I'm done hunting.

Hey this sounds familiar.  We just were sorting out how to put one of these %&@*& gizomos on.  Looks like the strap with the hooks on it go UNDER the waist belt prior to hooking on.  Not sure that was relayed above.

Lone Wolf has an excellent video on their web site for proper use.
