    Trees, the arch enemy of the model rocket. Hopfully this story can help if your rocket ever gets stuch in a tree.
    This weekend I had got my Vontex rocket stuck 10m up in a tree. After many attempts to shoot it out someone had tied a weight to a long rope. after throwing the weight over the branch, both ends were grabed. Finnaly the rocket was shaken free!

Great technique, I used to wait for a strong gust to pass in order to recover my rocket, good trick to keep in mind;)
