I like chipping at it from the sides like Gerry mentions, and I also crack the wrists to get a little extra speed just before I hit the log on the down swing. On the mean and nasty ones, I try to get full extension with my arms as that maul is coming on home from downtown!
I thought the guy was gonna stand on the half log to get a little more elevation for the down swing, but he did not. That helps sometimes to get a little more speed.
I also prefer wedges, that maul is not gonna last long beatin on it like that. And, his eyes ain't gonna last long either. He needs a pair of glasses, trust me, I know.
Finally, for the really tough ones, thats when it's time to pull out the 056 and cut that baby length wise. It ain't gonna beat me when I got 87cc and 36" of bar to throw at it! KD
