Who the hell climbs 40ft to hunt?

Who the hell climbs 40ft to hunt?

Someone who wants a better view than you can get at 20. Imagine having to tell your friends that your father died that way.

40ft is way too high. I highly doubts he even practices at that height.
My friends father died from falling out of a tree he was pruning. Another friends mother died from a falling branch.

40*, if he was in the woods that*s way to high. No need to go that high.

RIP to this hunter, cant imagine any reason climbing 40 ft high though!

I don't understand why anyone would be hunting from a treestand without a safety harness.

Wonder if it isn't a misprint.
I.climb 20 and that's plenty high.
Only reason for that is I can't sit still and deer have busted me at a lower height.


It's a shame.

Wonder what the circumstances were?

No belt? Slipped? Fell asleep?
Climber failure? Ladder failure?

Maybe is was suicide
