Even the manual pole pruner works great. I had quite a number of trees
in my back yard that needed constant pruning after 35 years. I could
keep them well under control with it. Constant source of fire wood over
the years.

The last time I chimed in on this subject I suggested that a pole
pruner can be supported by a harness as used for flagpoles in a parade
march. Someone loved the idea.
