Hello All

[Jcoguy]

Brand new guy from Hawaii here.... I would like to ask if its possible to rig some sort of chest or shoulder harness for an Ace 250. My girlfriend has a hard time holding for a long period of time. Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks

Welcome to Treasure Quest! I will be watching closely for the answer to your question since my wife is having the same trouble.

Thank you all .... I was thinking about a shoulder harness for a weed wacker. What do you guys think?

You may be able to use the weedwhacker harness, or convert it to a hip mount where the only weight is the stem and coil. Not being that familiar with the Ace250, I don't know how feasable that may be.

Welcome to the forum, Jcoguy. I just wanted to add a response. When I first started, my arm would become fatigued. I found that if I just kept going, it got a lot better. Maybe she just needs to strengthen her arm? Not meaning to be harsh, but the Ace250 isn't that heavy. I think she may just need to get used to it. Have you tried shortening the shaft?

I hope you guys find the solution that works for her, no matter what. I think it's cool that you guys hunt together.
