given that everyone has their own opinion. it might be fun for everyone to write down their idea for felling. then compare them. course, could also just as easily end up in a brawl. but that would be fun too. just sayin

I haven't even seen the pics, but here is my method of putting it where it needs to go:

1. Use throwball, set rope on something high & sturdy.
2. attach to truck...make sure rope is strong enough according to this equation:
{Force applied by truck-(tree strength - (face cut + backcut))} ≤ rope strength≥ tipping force required for tree
(for all you rednecks, that means don't stomp on the gas and break the rope, don't pull hard until tree can be pulled over)

3. cut down tree.
4. watch excitement when dead branches shatter all over the place.
5a. drink celebratory beverages, as dictated by preference.
5b. drink many consolatory beverages, as dictated by need and outcome of #3.
