Hey,

I think you have something there, boy I bet the Kong will work great on this stuff. I think the moderatore here all oughta do this for their big climbs in the internet world.

Thank again for the great input,

With this cord that only hitch that works is the tautline hitch. It wont bind up ever. Man I love this stuff.
 
A muffler? You mean tree guys drive truck with mufflers in nice nieghborhoods? Oh, well I'm always learning here at AS.

PS: it must be the moderators influence on us.

You mean you don't use trucks anymore, ..., you've gone back to station wagons? Boy I bet your boss likes the lower overhead.

I use Arbor Master for the reasons; it does not need any break in, it is 85000 ternsil, ) whats a few nicks), it smeems better in my hand. Although I got out an old hi-ve and it felt very nice. Of course it was old and had much service.

John LOVES the Blaze and is great with it. He climbs at the cutting edge with great skill and unusual talent.

Maybe someday soon I'll move to Blaze.

What's wrong with the poly three strand at home depot? It's rated at 600#. I only weigh 195 so I have better than a 3:1 safety factor. It's really easy to find cuz it's yellow, it's really affordable and it doesn't absorb water. It's also extra stretchy to make my landings softer when I'm pruning and my gaffs cut out.
