Errrr, most of us are in the UK, when we go brown its more likely to be rust

I used to backpack my tools. I find it's easier to use the van these days....... I'm 45 ya know.

Are there any papers or technical studies around about this, I have a team who are good but getting long in the tooth and at some point they will need to be replaced, but you only need to attend a woodfair with a climbing competition to know that age is no barrier!

 

Just curios to see if any studies have been made...

Could well be distant cousins, we both TALK a good job.

The older you get the less hard you have to work because you know all the little tricks to make easier.

There's a massive difference between spurring up and topping a conifer then ringing it down without a clear up, compared to a fiddlearse spurless reduction over four gardens, then dragging the brush through a tight passageway, with a bit of "help" from a stoned teenage groundy (with a two hour each way drive into central London)

The first you could do into your dotage, the second is a younger mans game.

Both tree work though.
