not for the purpose of recreation only but to clear limbs and in general provide tree services.
Is there a good book I can download? video tutorials, www links etc?

I`m also into felling and bucking and I have the Fallers` & Buckers` Handbook; very helpful so far

any help would be a big help and much appreciated;
Thanks in advance.
cheers.
 
The Tree Climbers Companion by Jeff Jepson, The Fundamentals of General Tree Work by G.F. Beranek as well as his video series The Working Climber parts 1 and 2.
The first in the series will cover climbing and the second will cover rigging basics. Your best bet is to work with a climber and learn that way. Good luck and P.S. it is not all about using spurs and a flip line those are for removals only!
I also forgot to mention this site in the commercial climbing forum.
