How long does it take you to get your rope in the tree?

[TheJollyLogger]

If I miss after a few attempts I ask one of our groundies to throw it

That's a good way to lose a throwball...

Normally I would agree, however our main groundie is a real good rigger and been in the trade 15 years and hits almost every throw first shot

Well, sounds like it's time to promote him from groundie to head rigger...

I almost always hit it first toss.

At what target height? 30 feet?

Roger that!

 

[rbtree]

Roger that!

You rang?

 

[Del_]

You rang?

It's good to see you.

I was kidding of course about first toss.

I toss until I get what I want.

It's a lot less pressure now that I'm retired and don't have paid employees hanging out while I toss.

Yeah, nothing worse than being off your game that morning, realizing you're charging the customer 4$ a minute for each bad toss...

 

[Piotr Pakuła]

It depends on how tall the tree is

I charge flat rate for my jobs usually, so we actually make throws on the first try usually
but charging by the hour is nice on crappy trees where you have no clue how long itll take to get lines set
