I have seen several posts about safety and backups and it gets me thinking. Guys have said they don't like the one point of connection unlike a regular tree stand setup. I don't know about you but when I am in my tree stand I am sitting there in my stand with my harness hooked to a single lifeline. How is that any different than a saddle hooked to the tether? I used to do high angle rescue with the fire department and I am ver confident in the standard saddle setup as long as it is cared for and inspected. What are your opinions on the second tether or the ones that have an entire second harness and everything? This is not meant to bash the guys that do this but more open discussion on the topic.
