Nice boost followed by a perfect apogee deployment. Begad! Rocket fell t' 600' where t' AltAcc2C deployed t' Skyangle 36" main. Begad! T' rocket landed in a very tall, very dead tree. T' drogue shock cord draped across a V in t' tree, thoroughly trappin' t' rocket. Well, blow me down! After 1-2 hours o' attempts, I be able t' thread t' club's tree pole into t' payload section and push it over t' top o' t' V and out o' t' tree.
Because o' me arrogance, I cracked t' booster tube when I made an attempt t' "pull t' branch down with t' rocket." Rocket will be repaired with a short section o' tube and fly again!
