    I would have walked by that tree, best of luck.

      Thx Tim. I have learned to disregard the trunk at ground level and look for straight sections at hunting height.

    I have a oak that blew over and reaprouted like that that I have prepped. It's a good spot. I don't even need rope for that one. Good video.

    Looks like an awesome setup with good cover. Would be cool to see you climb it and setup from the ground, plus your view while at height.

      Yes. But it's tough to do without a camera operator. And in a real hunting situation, which this is, if I brought a camera operator or even if I left my camera on a tripod, I would need to come right back down to retrieve it and neither would be helping my chances as a hunter. But I can definitely get some cellphone footage. Or maybe I can go in there for just a climb when not actually hunting. Stay tuned

    I would at least make an attempt with contacting the property owner to as to dropping the hazard trees if you like the area for hunting. I would at least ask...the worst thing they could say is no. Good luck.

      Agreed. That was considered but wasn't feasible. It's also not something anyone should do alone. Dropping dead trees is dangerous work, particularly because the tree can come apart at any time. I once lost a friend who was a veteran logger in such an incident.

    We are having LOTS of limbs dropping , pecans , oaks, and sweet gum especially after the drought lots of rain has caused the fruit of the trees get really heavy sans breaking off limbs

    What method did you use to climb? Was the main truck also captured in the preset?

    • @jrbtc
      @jrbtc  3 місяці тому

      @bennettwinn4809 good question. Typically, I do not capture the trunk in the preset. But on that Elm tree, I intentionally did capture it because it affects my position, pulling me a bit further right and the right and also closer to both trunks. The elm leans forward and I don't actually want to climb all the way up to the crotch because it's too high. And I use my DSRT method... no friction. See the DSRT playlist on my channel.

    Here's the first climb on this tree, some pruning, shooting positions, and the view from the canopy.
