busted- I have a big white oak co-dominate down in that hollar I been cutting. I'm dropping it 2moro, problem is that the fork is at my neck height. I'm not comfortable cutting that high on sloping ground. The growth seam goes to the ground so no way to dump both...I haven't even considered dropping one side then the entire stem! Hmmm...good Idea there ol'timer! LOL!

there are several choices in how to fall co-dominants.......depends on the situation
 
So how are the troops??? I had my near meltdown yesterday... I got done typing and poured me an ice cold glass of sweet tea...something else was going on, it all came back up, like real quick! Hell it looks like I missed a crap load of awesome pics from RandyMac!

Honestly now....could there be anything much cooler than fricken getting dropped off at yer strip by helicopter??? I want to go out in the bush like that! I don't really "dream" of logging, but if I did, I'm pretty sure it would involve something like being transported out into the middle of nowhere and logging. Imagine the sights and smells of timber country like that, the wildlife...and wondering when the last person passed through the area. Awesome!
 
as long as theres no climbing

I really got no choice on this one lol .....it goosed in one side hollow up to bout 12' on one side and even if it wasn't it would split when it was cut ......and it a leaner lol

Thats like the worst of everything ... might as well be growing out of a cliff face and you have to climb it with only one arm and one leg on a tuesday afternoon with a buzz tied on ...
