A carrying aid that transfers weight from a load supported by shoulder straps, such as a backpack or portable tree stand, and a method of using such to offset the weight of a deer stand or back pack to the user's hip area is disclosed. The carrying aid includes a weight supporting region and a fastener region. The weight supporting region forms a trough around a portion of the load to hold it in place. A fastener attaches the carrying aid to the user's belt. The carrying aid is easy to attach and remove from the user's belt and the load is easily placed in the weight supporting region. The carrying aid is lightweight and easily stored when not in use. This method of using a carrying aid is particularly useful for deer hunters or nature enthusiasts carrying shoulder strap-supported portable tree stands. |
