Mint, thanks for that link! Very informative. I've got my stand now, waiting for delivery of the SOP harness and still got to get the climbing sticks. I will practice plenty before heading into the actual woods.   :thumbsup:

Wannabe1, I made the linesman belt showed with the ascender and it works much easier than the ones you buy. With the one shown you can adjust with one hand while the ones you buy you must use two hands to adjust.

Mint, Thanks for mentioning the lineman belt.

Here is a video I did on how to make them in full detail.

Here is another video showing me going up, setting a stand, and coming down using that lineman belt.

Jason, I want to thank you    :bigsmyl:    for taking the time to do these videos. They are really great for newbies to stand hunting like me! I have learned a lot and am anticipating the time to put it all to good use. Come on deer season!

I see you had success while hanging that stand with the little black critter that ran by!   :biglaugh:

Thanks!!  I'm glad the videos help.

The kind of hunting you are about to get into is a wonderful way to chase critters!

You are going to have a great time!
