Yeah I thought I'd give it a try to, after all the tree pros make it look so easy, 5 years ago I picked up a lightly used set of climbing gear at a pawn shop (not one of my smarter decisions), it ain't for me, someone got a good deal on the gear on ebay a week later.
Of course 120' rope, throw line and weights, foot ascender, and chainsaw lanyard. Already have a climbing harness. I'd like to pick up a better tree saddle, as the sport harnesses aren't super comfortable to sit in for extended periods. But for now, it keeps me in the tree so it's good with me
