hi mate,

seen this forestry tool once. dont know what they call it.

what you do is attatch a reflector on the trunk at approx 1-2m then you look through a sight and shoot the reflector with a read dot, standing in the same spot you then look through the sight again and shoot the top of tree with the red dot, then you read the height on the digital display on the side of the device. that forestrytools.com or something like would have them. think though that they may want a couply dollars for it.

the stick trick works well.
