Why Tethering Matters
A tether is a safer rope to use while hunting than a lineman belt. It secures you and your saddle to a tree with more security because of the girth hitch construction. It also provides you with one connection point on your saddle instead of two like the lineman belt, so the tether allows for more body mobility on the tree to hunt in different directions.
It is critical that you use a tether in addition to a lineman belt to climb for a safer and more successful hunting experience.
