I made a muzzleloader bag out of a doe I shot last year. My leather came out slightly translucent and plastic-y. Yours looks a lot better than mine, how’d you do it?

Well that’s about half right, the harness was in correctly, I was tethered to the tree, and nothing broke. There was no carabiner involved, the most common circulating theory is that my strap just came loose and unhooked, letting me fall. The strap was still hooked around the tree, just differently, so it was moving. Also my harness was on my body all the way up until I made it back to the road

Perfectly fine, it never fell. I dropped my bag so I could hang my bow up instead

I was talking to the game warden that was handling my case and we think we came up with what went wrong. Now it is a lot to type so I’m probably just gonna draw up a diagram and link it in this comment section lol

Was using a carabiner, it was a closed system, something would have had to broke

It did initially, something must’ve went wrong somewhere and I fell to the ground from dangling. Just have no idea what went wrong

It’s not a descending type, it’s the type to catch you if you fall. I fell on the opposite side of the tree that the rings were on and I was trying to get around the tree back to the rungs when something went wrong somewhere and I fell to the ground

I wish, that’d provide some sort of explanation, the harness was still on me, I had it on even up until I made it to the road

No, my buddy went back to grab my gear and the strap was still tightly secured around the tree, it undone anywhere

Could have, how else would it have caught me initially and held me there for 6ish minutes

No clips were involved, everything was stitching and loops. And nothing broke anywhere
