davey tree approved saddles

[Jamin_Mayer]

I'd rather work in a completely different line of work (like shovel cow poop 8 hours per day) than work for Davey.

Unless, of course, they hired me as a consultant to train their employees how to make a collar cut, proper thinning cuts, and proper reduction cuts.

And for the sake of the thread... If I were a consultant for Davey, I'd make sure their employees were riding in T.M.'s.

sounds to me that they are an archaic company with old standards and even older policy's.

makes me glad I answer to the man in the mirror

fine, after being bashed for my statement about the gutter cleaning by every cougar lover in the country; i retract the statement about being a gutter cleaner. fyi i weight between 210 and 220 and am 6' even and there isn't one pound of fat on me much less three, furthermore, if i want to shed some weight via useless sweat absorbing padding (mostly because i sweat like a thoroughbred), then thats my choice. grow some meat on your bones and maybe you won't need so much padding. i still think the cougar is a rushed to production steaming pile of crap.

The horse comparison is a good one, but I wouldn't go so far as to say 'thoroughbred.'

OK Jeff - you're sticking to your guns - nothing wrong with that! Guess my twinkies and Ho Ho's comment was a little out of line. I wish I could put about 20 lbs on but the metabolism won't allow it!

Anyways, enough about our figures - back to the cougar - I didn't buy it because of the padding - i didn't know it had that much til it shipped to me. I don't have any places around here to try on saddles - I just have to buy one and hope i like it. I would love to try a sequoia as my next "office chair", but want to make sure i'll like it before i shell out nearly $400!

i guess i'm going to go with as stripped out of a glide as i can find or maybe an old school siding d

Based on what Jeff is saying, yes it is approved. Jeff? ¿Si?

 

[Jeff_Cochran]
