Mick, IME rugby guys are mighty burly, good luck with him!

:thumbup:

I sure do, sir. I learned it from FGTW of course and I use it often. But of course I use it on limbs that are 6' away, easy stuff!!!

How would you get the throw weight back to you ?

8) :headbang: Sounds good!

yeah ok, sir. But more power to ya. The same mind that sucked up more or less all there is to know about welding and all things metal, when directed at the art and science of tree work? Look out. :drink:

I hear ya. So how long you gonna stick with the 'I'm just a part timer rookie tree guy' thing, anyway??!!? ;) :drink:

I think I mighta gotten all that. So you use a mini climbing system to do a bunch of different things, one of which is to use the hook with. Heavy snaps rock for tossing, I use a non locker on the end of my half inch bull rope, it is da chit. Fine looking gray climbing device hanging...

Oh wow! Is 10mm the chit for using a grapple? How much length do you figure? Do you put a friction hitch on it so you don't have to muscle it with your hands?

09, I got the DMM hook, what kinda line and line storage do you use for it? Thanks

Been awhile, nice to read you agin.

Anything you do in a tree, except cabling, involves cutting so I would think the handsaw would be a staple because it may be able to do all the cutting needed or it may aid in doing small cuts while the chain saw gets all the bigger stuff

Gotta say that is surprising to me, hard to figure!

:thumbup: Ditto. And it gets worse as I get older.

So it doubles as a cool vest and water source. Interesting

Dave, also a handsaw I presume? Back in the day I carried no handsaw, just chain saw:|:
