When installing my hang on stand I use a rock climbing harness. When you get to your desired height on the tree then use a anchor strap around the tree just above where your putting your stand. With you safely anchored you can then sit into your harness and install the stand hands free. I've only used hang on stands and don't plan on using the others. Ladder stands you are limited to the hieght of the ladder(which is not that high usually) and finding a tree suitable for climbing can be a real challenge sometimes in the buck brush. This is what works for me.
