[QUOTE="chuckwood, post: 5595646, member: 20994"] Ditto about East TN. I've got a pole saw and I feel that it's made some of my tree work a lot safer. This past winter, I had a big hackberry tree come down in an ice storm, and I had to remove it or stop mowing in the area. Problem was it was a bad leaner, with all the big branches just on one side, and it came down slow so the trunk was propped up in the air around 14 feet at the highest point. I spent some time thinking and studying and carefully took it all apart initially with a pole saw. If anything went wrong it felt good to know I had a ten foot head start on something big moving suddenly in my direction. [/QUOTE]
