Lone Wolf Sticks - How high can you go?

Unread postby brink » Fri Aug 31, 2012 7:02 am

For those of you on here, which is most I believe, that use Lone Wolf climbing sticks, how far up the tree can you get with three 36" sticks?

Thinking of buying a set but it almost seems that you'd need 4 to even get to 18 feet. :think:

Thanks fellas.

They are 32" I believe. Depending how far you can space them out. I am 6'4" and can get 20' easy with 4 sticks

18 with 3
22 with 4

Thats stretching them as far apart as possible. I use 4 - NOT spacing them to far and get 20'

Four sticks looks a lot higher from ground level then you feel once up there, at least me anyhow. Some day I will add one more. Right now its four sticks and three cranford steps.

Safely, 3 sticks, about 16 feet, give or take. 4 sticks, 20 feet give or take. 5 sticks 25 feet give or take.

I'm 6'2" so I have a little bit easier time getting higher.

If I am trying to get high, 22-23 with four. Space the first and second as far as you can then less with 3rd and forth to be safe.
