What is your primary trigger side while cutting?

Yeah, it's what I prefer. A preference probably gained from having a full wrap handle, mind you. Not that I won't cut from the top of the bar, I just try and position myself so I don't have to.

That's what I prefer too, especially on bigger trees.

On small trees around here I like to stand on the right side and notch with the bottom (traditional with angle cut first) of the bar and make the backcut with the top of the bar, that way I can stay on one side and only flip the saw once, it's fast.

If that was the case, then manufacturers wouldn't make a full wrap or 3/4 wrap handle, which sounding by your post you've never seen.

I prefer to stand on one side of the tree and not walk around it to make various cuts and prefer to use only the bottom of the bar. With that said, equally left and right!

And center handle on many small saws too.
