Interesting discussion on shooting antenna wires in trees.
I have used a bow and arrow for 25 years. Cheap practice bow (good for trees up to 100ft) and practice arrows with an open tip. I fill the tip with a few nuts (ie nuts and bolts nuts) and tape the end shut which gives just a bit of weight to the arrow - nose down. This hampers the distance capability a bit but still allows clearing of a 100 ft tree. And then the arrow drops like a stone through the tree branches. I have not lost an arrow in many many years. I have developed pretty darned good accuracy over the years. So while drone is cool, the need is not there, and the loss of an occasional $2 arrow is a non-issue compared to a $200 - $750 drone. I am always surprised that people don't use the bow and arrow more. Spud guns and slingshots seem to be more popular.
