Bird perch.

Nope

This pic got a bunch of the keyboard jockey experts on "another site" all spewing bullchit. Too bad they were clueless as it was cut just as intended.

Swing cut

 

[hacskaroly]

Anyone want to take a stab at why it was cut the way it was?

I am one of those clueless people, I would not have done it that way, but then I probably would have done it wrong...involving tossing the saw one way and running the other while the tree was coming down.

I am looking forward to hearing the reason for this type of cut!

Which way did this tree fall, towards the left of the image?

I guess I forgot to explain it. Awhile back some of eth experts on another site were puffing out their chests behind their keyboards on how they could tell how a tree was cut just by a stump picture. They were just keyboard jockeys.

I posted this one.




They all started chiming in and were totally clueless.

I then posted this one.

The first was flushed off to apply Picloram

The second is just as it was cut. As I cut that my brother was in the Deere 200G excavator with a thumb. Once he grabbed the trees I cut them 90/95% and he snapped them off. He then swung them to the east and my nephew piled them with the Deere dozer.

A bit like single stem logging

walked up on this old stump while helping a buddy trail a deer the other day.. the timber on this farm was supposedly logged several years ago…

It grew that way....I think....

 

[Catfishclark89]

Well I guarantee the trees I cut to not grow back… maybe I should reconsider my guarantee…
Seriously though I would’ve trimmed that off

I would think too that most guys would look both ways first and then finish trimming off that little bit of oops.....maybe the guy cutting was several beers in and didn't realize or care...lol

Maybe it chaired and smacked him?

I’m sure it chaired.. just hope it didn’t get whoever it was.

Nothing has brought me closer to sh*ting myself then the first tree I had barberchair

I remember mine. Little leaning redoak. I hadn’t been felling long. Near the end of the day and I guess my fatigue clouded my judgement and I didn’t bore cut . It popped and I bounced out of there like a rabbit. Shew

 

[Hoser]

Mine was a hard leaning white ash and I thought it’d be easy firewood. Face cut, halfway ish in the back cut and holy F.
I was 15-16 ran saws enough I thought I had a handle on it. Didn’t know what a bore cut was, didn’t know why the tree exploded just knew I didn’t know sh*t.
Stopped using my Skil 1661, bought my 271 and bugged the crap out of loggers to learn

 

[TheDarkLordChinChin]

I think mine was a tiny willow growing so horizontally that it had hooped over and the top was nearly touching the ground again.
Blunt chain.
