Are you aloud to hang a stand from a telephone pole!? Out in the country where those HUGE telephone poles there was a guy on a stand on one of them. A guy a couple years ago, almost killed himself because he was so high that when he lifted his bow to stand up it hit the wires. Just wondering. I would but i guess some would.

That's really just flat out stupid. Wow. "Hey, how'd those wires get in this here tree?"

That sounds like a pretty stupid idea to me. Not only do you need to worry about your overheard clearance (or else risk death), but your outline would be almost completely exposed.

I would imagine that it's highly illegal, i.e. safety violation and trespassing. The utility companies don't take kindly to people climbing on their property.

I hear ya all there! I would never climb i telephone wire. I think it is illegal to be ON the pole but not around them. Which those are fun to hunt!

where I'm from you'd have to climb up pretty high to hit wires...not too bright

Yep, that's what I meant. The ground is fine, but the moment you put a foot on the pole, you're asking for a heap of trouble from the company.

Pretty dumb if you ask me. [8D]

And I think someone else said it, I think it's illegal to mess with Power
Company poles.

I wonder that if the power company saw that they would wait for him a. to get shocked or b. wait for him to climb down & be irratated he didnt get shocked!

You can bet the farm that the power company would get a trespasser down ASAP. Any unauthorized person on a pole is a major liability, regardless of the law prohibiting the trespassing. Just think of how sue-happy the country is today.
