How should you get a firearm elevated into a tree stand safely?

  1. Climb up with the loaded firearm

  2. Haul up with the action open

  3. Haul up unloaded firearm after securing yourself

  4. Throw the firearm up to the tree stand

The correct answer is: Haul up unloaded firearm after securing yourself

Climbing up with a loaded firearm is extremely dangerous as you could risk accidentally firing the gun or dropping it. Hauling up with the action open also presents a safety hazard. It is important to always have a firearm pointed in a safe direction and have the action closed when not in use. Throwing a firearm up to a tree stand is not only unsafe for the firearm, but also for anyone or anything in the surrounding area. The safest option is to secure yourself, then haul up an unloaded firearm and load it once you are in the stand.
