What is a safe practice when using a tree stand?

  1. Always use a ladder to reach your stand

  2. Never use a safety harness

  3. Always use a haul line to bring up your unloaded gun

  4. Climb higher than the stand for a better view

The correct answer is: Always use a haul line to bring up your unloaded gun

Using a haul line to bring up your unloaded gun is a safe practice when using a tree stand because it prevents any accidents from occurring while you are climbing up the tree. Option A is incorrect as using a ladder can still cause accidents. Option B is also incorrect as not using a safety harness increases the risk of falling from the stand. Option D is incorrect because climbing higher than the stand can cause instability and increase the chances of your stand falling.
