any opinions on the more reliable of the two. I'm worried about the thing getting stuck running while I'm topping a tree; you know, if I had to throw it....
How would you throw it if it was stuck? I don't understand. If you plan on throwing it wouldn't you want a less expensive climbing saw like the top handle...
First, when topping you should never bite off more than you can chew. Both models are very good choices, Stihl's are built tough, while Husky's are built for...
well, maybe I wasn't clear. I meant stuck in the running position. I meant having to use two hands to quickly guide a tree top from falling back on you. I...
Yeah dude this is a recational tree climbing club. I am a pro from Ohio. I just joined to see what was going on. I would go with the Sthil, but I always go ...
You would never need to throw your saw if you finish the cut with a hand saw. Also, you should always have it tied off so your goundy can then pull it over in...
I hardly ever finish a cut with my hand saw anymore. I cut in as far as I can, right to almost the point of dropping. Stop my saw, clip it back on my belt, and...

On the topic of limb savers, this is how I have always done it. You will have to put your rope up and climb without the saver once. This may put some stress on...
There's an easy way to do it without climbing with rope on bark at all. It's described in "The Treeclimber's Companion" quite well. I'd recommend you buy the...
