[QUOTE="Brownie, post: 3408183, member: 5191"] Agreed that accidents may be more likely in a lock-on or a climber, but only if you're negligent imo....If you are safe when hanging and climbing in and out then you have nothing to worry about. I don't rely on just one strap for my hang ons. I put an extra ratchet strap around the bottom and then also a cable lock. I use a lineman's belt to climb into the stand and when I get to the bottom of the stand (about to step out onto the stand) I also tie into the tree above the stand before unclipping my lineman's belt so that I'm always attached. If for some reason the stand was to break or give and throw me off..I'll be hanging with plenty of climbing sticks to get my bearings with... Here's a question...If your ladder stand breaks or if your climber breaks or drops out from underneath you, what are you going to do?? You'll be stuck hanging from your harness..if it happens with a lock-on and you're strapped in, you can easily climb down your steps. [/QUOTE]
