How should your firearms and equipment be brought into a treestand?

Unload your firearm, and open the action. PROVE it safe.Lay it on the ground with the muzzle slightly elevated to prevent dirt and debris from getting into the barrel.Tie a short rope or cord around the stock, and attach the other end to the barrel. This “bridle” will give you a means to attach your haul line. If your firearm has a sling, use it instead.Tie or attach the haul line securely to the sling or bridle so that the firearm hangs with the muzzle pointed down. Make sure the haul line is a bit longer than the height of the tree stand above the ground.Slip the end of the haul line through your belt. Leave it untied so that it can pull free if you fall.Put on your fall-arrest system, secure yourself to the tree, and climb to your stand.Once you are secure in your tree stand, haul up the firearm. Untie the haul line and bridle.
