Nothing wrong with the idea as long as they aren't really huge . Throw in a roller chain catcher while you're at it !Good idea or no?
Got a specific set in mind?A lot of the trees i fell are on hills and depending on the situation you can't always use the dawg on there now because the angle is wrong. I would want a small set...not the big honkin ones.
I wouldn't be without double dogs on my saws. But I still have to get the outer dog for my 372XP. I'll probably make a nice set out on my buddy's forge for it. I made several sets so far (out of jeep leaf springs), they are nice.
I like double dogs for bucking, too. And with all the big pine, oak, and locust we cut, I need the big dogs....to get through the thick bark....
I run'em on my 036's and my 460 (the Husq 575xp I just bought had some too )
I still cut out in the field and woods a little. But I am gonna stick tp my 6-8 cord log loads and there is No trimming. Just Bucking.

Cant even imagine. Once a piece rolls back to the dawgs it has to stall. That causes a very sticky saw.

Not following what you mean there? I have dawgs like that on my 460 and they work great.
Me either? Never stalled any of mine ??

If the log is smaller and the hp turns the log over to the saw the saw will stall in a heart beat with double big dawgs. Even and 880! Bump spikes are much faster! I think you guys like the assault Saw.....lol
Time for a tune up or something!
Sure if I put some ass into it and lever on the saw like it's a pry bar it will bog and maybe stop the chain, but why would I do that? I let it do it's thing and go home not having rubbery arms and a back that's killing me.
lol It does Not take a strong pull to stall a saw, but what the heck to I know. Its an assault saw!
Ok, if you say so. I've run close to 50 cords through a 460... I know pretty well how it cuts.
Good idea or no?
lol, your still a pup.
I only bought that saw August of last year....
