What do you guys fear when in the stand?
Okay, you just got up in your tree stand and have gotten all situated. Next step is pulling your bow up, the long journey from the ground to your stand. Do any of you guys ever think about your rope breaking or the connector attaching the rope to the bow breaking?
I do. It would be an absolute nightmare if my bow fell to the ground upon its ascent. I am sure its unlikely but I'm also sure its happened alot.

I fear a racoon hiding up in the tree above me and jumping down on my head.
I tie my rope to the bow and make sure it will not pull loose before I climb up.

Wheat: That would be a bad day. I couldn't imagine what I would do if a raccoon jumped on me.[:-]

My Main Fears
1. Getting picked off by a rifle hunter who is trespassing while drinking a Coors Light and smoking something that he shouldnt.
2. Tree breaking and me then falling
3. Treestand AND harness failure at the same time
4. Osama Bin Huntin
5. Getting winded
And, to top it all off.

bees. I'm not un-necessarily afraid of them, like a phobia or anything, but when they buzz around me I get the willies. When I get the willies I get the shakes. I'd hate to be hanging upside down by my safety harness because a little bee buzzed me.
