Pole gaffs

[C&Doutdoors]

I bought a pair of climbing spurs that comes with pole gaffs. Was wondering do pole gaffs work or will I need to get tree ones. I hunt in ohio so lots of oak trees but nothing crazy big 10 to 15 in wide is most of my trees. I've heard good and bad about both, but comfortable and functionality is the main thing. Picture below....Thanks for your input.

On oaks that size the pole gaffs should be fine.

Yeah we really don't have massive trees out here like you would see out west or big forest

I use pole gaffs with success. I take smaller steps and take my time going up and down. Dont be in a race to the top cause you might find yourself at the bottom just as quick...haha

Yeah will definitely be going slow, I'm no Tarzan when it comes to this

The tree can be as big around as Central Park as long as the bark is smooth. It doesn’t matter. However if you start hunting trees the size of Central Park then your tether and lineman’s are sure to increase in length a little.

Pole gaffs will work just fine.

Are you sure those are pole gaffs? Looks like tree gaffes to me.

I thought so too.
