Hunter Safety System Lifeline – Treestand Safety Rope System with Ground-to-Stand Fall Protection & Silent Climbing

Well made and a safe item to have when in a tree stand .

Don’t climb into a stand without using this product. This is the way to go.

Good rope and knot to go with my HSS harness.

I used to be among those who didn’t use a safety line or even a harness when in a tree stand. Now there’s no excuse with how simple these are to use and I trust they would hold me just fine if I were to fall out! They seem to hold up well to the weather and I have a tendency to leave them out year round.

Have always hunted from blinds but in the last few years I have started hunting more from hang on stands and a life line is a must have. Easy to use easy to setup and will save your life. Very durable and the covered locking carabiner is a great touch for going up without making too much noise.

I purchased the HSS-LifeLine Safety System after my brother broke his heel from out of a tree stand as he was descending. Granted he was using a climber, and the HSS-LifeLine Safety System, but it got the family thinking! We have many permanent stands, and what happened to Joe could have happened to anyone. The HSS-LifeLine Safety System is a thick-well constructed rope. It comes with a strong carabineer and the prussic knot is durable with a large opening …much larger knot that the MUDDY lifeline system. That is where the benefits end! The HSS-LifeLine Safety System 3 pack is also about $20 more than the MUDDY Lifeline system 3 pack. The Muddy rope is a little thinner, but just as strong. It also doesn’t come with a carabineer; which I am figuring is the difference in price. I tried pricing out making them myself, but it was nearly a wash considering the ridiculously strong carabineer HSS includes with the ropes. The HSS-LifeLine Safety System will do what it is designed to do – save your life! I used them this past season. On very cold days the prussic knot froze, but with a little tugging it became free and slid up and down the host rope as intended. However, if all your safety harness comes with carabineers, which the HSS-Safety Harnesses DO NOT, then you are probably better off going with the Muddy system. There have been some critical reviews on different hunting blogs; archerytalk.com, stating that HSS is not using the correct rope – static v. dynamic fibers. I found the literature very fascinating, but it will not deter me from putting my life in its fiber strands! In short, any LifeLine System can save your life. If you have a carabineer then choose the MUDDY or another brand. If not, go with HSS. My entire family uses HSS-harnesses. It only made sense, for us, to use the matching accessories. However, our next set will most likely be the MUDDY …why not try both if you have multiple stands.

I find older and more stubborn hunters the worst when it comes to safety. They all have a story about how they fell out, or knew someone who fell, to injury or worse. It's more common that people like to acknowledge. Here's the kicker, none of those people had harnesses or life-lines. It's a must in any tree for me. A decent harness and a life-line. Even when saddle hunting, you have a harness attached to the tree at a few points. Same concept here, but with a sturdy rope that will catch your fall. The knots are good, the rope is thick, and the locking carabiner is solid. Want less noise? Wrap the carabiner with moleskin. Use a harness and use a life-line. Prevent injury. 'Nuff said.

Must have
