New to this site and have a question for the experts. I have been cutting trees, I would say higher up on the rookie level for while now. Dropped a few dozen over the years and grab plenty or firewood off the side of the road. My question is this. What size rope should I buy for pulling trees. Not for pulling trees over, I know enough not to do that, but for moving them when they are on the ground. I pull things quite a bit with my pickup and have broken a few ropes in my day. I have looked at Weepsur.com and they have some nice bull rope on there. 5/8 rated at 16,000lbs or 3/4 rated at 20,000lbs. What do you guys think?
