What I like to do is limb everything that is not a weight bearing limb, leaving all the weight bearing limbs, and thus holding the tree up off the ground as much as possible. That way, I can start bucking from the top down and because the tree is held up off the ground by the multiple limbs of pine, you can free cut almost everything and not have to worry about cutting into the dirt.
That sounds smart!
But is it something oak burners could understand, do you suppose?
Now, I'm teasing, oak burners
And some people aren't artists.
Being a first responder it sickened me to see some inbreds thinking property destruction and people maimed or possibly killed due to lack of knowledge ,carelessness or stupidity is something to laugh at.Guess that's the reason i'm employed stupid people,trees are dangerous saw two people killed in ten years out here not pretty.
