Re: lightweight tree trimmer for scouting
I've been asking Wicked to put a pruner on a saw for three years... Just don't understand why anyone would carry a saw into the woods for lane clearing without a pruner?

Re: lightweight tree trimmer for scouting
I tried it today and it worked perfectly. I cleared a pine to about 18ft. I never left the ground. Watch out Mr buck that likes to rub everything in your staging area.

Yea sounds like a good reason to tack on another $50 to a wicked saw setup. Blows my mind how much money gets carried into the woods now-a-days. Lots of handy things, very few necessary things.

Re: lightweight tree trimmer for scouting
Great idea. I would think you could just duct tape your hand saw to a branch.

you can but the handle will get sticky. You might be able to use hose clamps on your saw handle as well. I'm always trying to find a way of limiting weight and making life easier.

I always carry a small rope that I can throw over limbs and bend them down so I can trim them. This works pretty good most of the time.

Good idea!

Re: lightweight tree trimmer for scouting
I usually have a small saw in my pack for hunts and if need be, I carry an extendable pole saw scouting if I know I'll be prepping a tree. Other than that, I don't carry one as it just slows me down and gets in the way
