    Ummmmmmm belts come in sizes do you know your D-ring size? Look On e bay or try the local pawn shop. there are excellant deals to be found at both. But a belt with the wrong d-ring size will hurt yer azz til the day you get outta it.

    Default The common Buckingham pole gaffs are fine but its worth investing in quality

    pads.

    I grew up on tree gaffs so pole gaffs where a natural conversion as they where better to climb poles with. I moonlighted as larry the cable guy on tree gaffs for years before I know there was a difference.

    Get rid of the old T pads and get some nice aluminum pads, Makes a huge difference at the end of the day.

    I have a set of klein hooks that i used for a few months, they were brand new before that... in really good shape, but not as forgiving as bashlins or buckinghams with the gaff size. Lemme know if you're interested.
