On these dead ash there was really no other option (except to climb it to set a rope - too dangerous imho , rotted away) ... fortunately there was enough of a nub to get some purchase on ... you could almost put your hand straight thru the tree at its most compromised spot !
Home Depot has a 23ft reach telescoping pole that saved my ass on a recent job ... dead ash spar straight up like a popsicle ... we were able to use the pole to get a line up and over the only limb available approx 25ft up ... came down the backside and tied off ... the tree was so rotted we...
14oz is good ... I went thru the same frustration and made an air powered launcher ... guess if you wanted to practice you could hit 40ft+ (or higher) by hand - I just got tired of farting-around with hand launching
