The Tuul Crib 7,336 #1 Posted March 14, 2021 So I'm sitting here at the shop looking out the door and I look up in the trees next to my driveway and see this. Not sure how to get it down safely but I know I don't want to get near it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DennisThornton 4,769 #2 Posted March 14, 2021 What diameter? Looks like only 4" or so to me. Whatever you could throw a bag with string over it and then pull up a rope. Give you and your Horse something to do. 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,803 #3 Posted March 14, 2021 My thoughts too Dennis! Toss a rigger rope over it and hop it grabs! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Tuul Crib 7,336 #4 Posted March 14, 2021 The limb is about 45 feet up in the air and yes it's about four or 5 inches in diameter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DennisThornton 4,769 #5 Posted March 14, 2021 Weight with a string or small cord over the limb and drag up a rope with a grapple hook or similar. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 9,981 #6 Posted March 14, 2021 Looks like it's snagged on a small tree. How about cutting that down? There's a bigger tree you can hide behind. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haydendavid380 759 #7 Posted March 14, 2021 I took about a half dozen down like this last year after an ice storm. I tied a railroad spike to some paracord. Whipped the spike around until it had enough momentum to fly up and over. Passed the spike through a loop and cinched it down. Tied it off to the back of the 312 and drug it out. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
