Tree professionals use the DTX Shoulder Shot for a reliable, air-powered throw ball launcher to set tree limb tie-in points 40 to 250 feet up.
Hits Tough Tie-In Points Fast
Makes quick work with:
✔ Tall trees
✔ Tough angles & tight backyards
✔ Pines & dense canopies
✔ Windy days & tricky setups
✔ New team members
✔ Bad throw days
There are few greater joys than hitting a throw-bag shot on the first try, clean over the top. Especially when it’s a 150+ ft Doug Fir. While it’s not perfect, the DTX Shoulder Shot is a handy tool to have in our kit.”

Simple to Use
- Load: Drop in a 12oz throw ball with a throwline attached. (Other weights work if they fit snugly.)
- Fill: Pressurize the chamber using a hand pump or air compressor (1-4 minutes, depending on tree height).
- Set Range: Adjust the PSI using our on-unit pressure chart & gauge so you hit your target, not the client’s property.
- Aim & Release: Rest on your right shoulder, open the safety, sight your target, and launch.
Made so anyone on the team can learn by noon, set lines, and get jobs ready and done
