I personally find climbers to be the safest elevated hunting option, after ladder stands. I added third hand stabilizer straps and use the HsS tree rope so I can be tied in the entire time up and down with ease and feel very safe. I have replaced cables onece in 8 years on my summit titan and that's only because the shrink tubing was in such poor repair in its so cheap to do so every few years.

"I dream of the day when my son can join me in the woods on a hunt. I will pass on all that I have learned to him, just like my father did to me. To me, this defines tradition which can survive for endless generations as long as we do our part."
