The guys who cleared our trees used something like that.  It had some kind of ungodly break strength.  Dude was a squirrel.

Yeah but the actual weight at the end is called a throw bag.

If you're a cheapskate I have used a couple rocks in an old sock, tied to the end if the line.

Mines a Bartlett branded bucket, notch line and weaver 14oz bags.

Bartlett, Treestuff, and Sherriltree are all good sources

All I've ever used one for is getting dead, drier wood off trees for firewood.  Getting old now but about 100' or paracord is what I've used.  Tie a stick on the end of it and have at it.

Haha I have done that. Only I didnt want to waste paracord from the spools and used cheap nylon line that I use for marking fences and such.

The line itself is dyneema.  Paradors stretches when it’s wet, use the right tool for the job.

Growing up the man in the back of us would always help the neighborhood taking trees down and he had a rope with the head off of a ball peen hammer as the weight.  The man could throw that thing very accurately up into the trees, between branches, he would be a corn hole champ today

Samson Zing-It braided rope. 1/16" and 3/32" has an avg strength of 500lb and 650lb. 180' rolls are about 25-30 bucks, I always keep a roll on hand. It's also spliceable so you can put eyelets in it while maintaining its strength. Super handy.

I’ve used a padlock. Works ok but you do not want that thing hitting you in the head.

This is a great idea, thanks!  I feel like I can cast more accurately and further than throwing an object.
