Safety Tips
To keep you and others safe
Treestands
Stay away! - Avoid permanent stands; they weaken with age, damage trees and are eyesores.
Smart choice! - Used stands certified by the Treestand Manufacturers Association (TMA). They are commercially designed and tested to meet high standards.
Read the directions! - Read and follow manufacture's guidelines. Practice with stands before hunting.
Look carefully! - Inspect all stands and climbing equipment before each use.
Choose wisely! - Select only suitable trees. Avoid dead trees or those with loose bark.
Buckle up! - Use a fall-restraint device, preferably a full-body harness, any time your feet leave the ground!
Hold on tight! - Maintain three points of contact with the climbing system, ladder or tree at all times while climbing.
Climb safely! - Use a haul line to pull up gear. If hunting with a firearm, make sure it is unloaded and the muzzle is covered! Never attach the line near the trigger or trigger guard.
Ask a friend! - Use 3 persons to set-up any ladder-type treestand.
Hunt with a plan! - In the event of a fall, be prepared to help yourself. Have someone contact authorities if you don't return at an established time.
FirearmsHandle all firearms as if they're loaded! - Never assume they're unloaded. Double check to be sure.
Take charge of that muzzle! - Always point it in a safe direction.
Identify your target! Don't rush. - Look for unmistakable, positive proof your shot will be safe. Make sure the area in front of and beyond your target is safe, too!
Don't ride the trigger! - Don't put your finger on the trigger until you're ready to shoot.
Keep the barrel and action clear! - Check for obstructions like mud or jammed cartridges. Only carry ammunition matching the caliber or gauge of the firearm you're using.
Unload all firearms not in use! - It eliminates unintentional discharges and saves lives. Transport unloaded firearms in cases with the action open.
Cross or climb safely! - Unload and place your firearm on the ground before crossing a fence, log or other obstacle, or climbing a tree.
Check your backstop! - Shoot only when a safe and adequate backstop exists. Don't shoot at hard, flat surfaces; water; or a target on the horizon.
Store firearms and ammunition separately! - Keep them locked and away from children or other inexperienced people.
Don't mix guns with drugs or alcohol! - they just don’t mix
