My logger buddy hooked me up yet again with a logged woods that was primarily Oak..Burr,Red,White and Pin Oak. I was cutting on a medium sized Red Oak top and stopped to take a break when I spotted a dead tree that had been blown over...at distance I thought it was a Red but it turned out to be a very large Pin Oak. I sunk the 660 into it to test it...it immediately brought a smile to my face! It was solid! I switched gears muc
h to the dismay of my helpers who thought we were almost done....lol I am guessing there is a cord and half....maybe more in this one tree....I commenced to filling the bed of my truck with split quarters till it was maxed out.....I will be back! I also filled the dump trailer up with Red Oak...all in all it was good day...beautiful weather here today topping out at 60!
Nice score today...

Very nice. Just finished getting the last of five cords from a red oak on a property. 48" DBH. Fell this summer in a storm, but it had been leaning hard for years. Had to split the rounds into 100lb sections to load. Bummer is trailer bearing blew 2 miles from home with a cord on it. Had to take several trips with the truck and limp the trailer home. Wish i had a beefier set-up like yours. Nice score.
