HACK
Sorry - my term for having the butt of the trunk slide backwards off the stump, what I guess is being referred to as stumpshot.
It does make sense to me that this should not be a huge issue with a dead stick like that.
Gotcha... What always worries me the most about the dead "snags" as I've heard them called, is the fear of cutting through the only solid stuff in the tree, leaving only junk to hold all the vertical weight!:msp_scared:
I'm sure there are guys that make a living removing these types, and have made a science out of it.
I just don't know any.
