Hey all, I have been climbing for a couple years now and have recently done a few trimming jobs because it combines my love for climbing with a way to earn extra money for the family. I come from a rock climbing mind set which steers me to always go with the highest bomb proof anchor I can find... In studying climbing arborists at work on Youtube and noticing my tie in's are too low a lot of times for proper branch walking, I have noticed them choosing T.I.P.'s that I wouldn't ever dream of using! I am hoping to get a general list of rules or guidelines for choosing a T.I.P. or for not choosing one, any and all advice welcome from you fine gents of Tree Work! Thanks!
 
Sorry dudes, did not see that I should direct this to the Arborist 101 section, just wanted to ask the Pros!
