They just haul logs for people Carl logged for years and they got into hauling. They haul alot for Rnk logging he lives in Rogersville that may be him that's logging where ur talking About

I love those stumps, kinda like a falling CSI. The last one looks like a shallow conventional notch on the left, with a bored out area (too far) behind the face, but the bar didn't reach all the way thru on the borecut, and it was kinda "half coos bay'd on the far side, then releasing the strap from the back.
This is way above my pay grade, but a deeper notch, and putting the borecut 2" instead of 5" behind the face will pull a lot less fiber

i did GOL a small ash the other day, it was leaning 45* or more..........worked like a charm but still felt really weird lol.

Every time? In every tree? You're dealing in absolutes again. Quit it.

Ya. I find the whole "do you really want to like this post" query not too helpful. What I need is an "It's 2am and you are making multiple presumptuous posts in the F&L forum, why don't you quit and go to bed?" warning

Mike, I'm so happy you're joining the Swedish Revolution! I realize you are probably lacking the proper GOL accessories, so this should be arriving for you on the Eastern Shore early next week!

Looks like he bored the heart, cut the cheeks & started cutting up the back.
