Was wondering if any of yous guys ever manicured your live oaks? When I moved into the house it had a little 1 inch oak sapling 3 foot tall. It grew very little at first. I gave it some root spikes and after that it grew like wild fire. Every year during pruning season I look forward to doing my best at making it into a beautiful tree. I climb up as far as I can to clear out dead branches or stuff that is not in my mental picture. I really enjoy keeping it balanced and proportional.
 
All the time. You might want to consider checking out some recreational tree climbing gear if you plan to keep going up in the tree. Besides, you'll have more fun.
Where might something like that be found?
