August, you are a great teacher and I watched the video with great attention because every second of this video was precious and every comment of yours was GOLD for us, I THANK YOU FOR THE ENTH LESSON you gave us. Greetings from Italy Piero
Hello, I have a friend who is a big fan of yours, and he is also involved in arboriculture. His dream is to study with you and I'm not joking, I'm writing this because I'm his friend. Tomek has great talent and courage, but he lacks self-confidence and is a very modest person. If you are reading this, thank you very much, maybe your paths will cross one day. If I can ask other YT users to like it, please
Great video as always August. Good stuff for beginners to learn and for professionals to hear repeated. Only thing I have to contribute, especially for guys with smaller trucks and winches or no truck at all: Get yourself a Tirfor manual winch, you will not regret it. They are absolute beasts, the largest one will pull 5 tons easily. Can be set up and operated by one man alone, and doesn't require you to be able to park a truck nearby. Absolutely invaluable tool in my toolbox, that's for sure. Cheers, and keep up the good work. Best regards from Norway. 🙂
Perfectly done and Bob really enjoyed it !!! Thought he might be a little nervous at first but he didn't move his car so obviously he has great trust in you ❤ I'm buying a 12.000 lbs winch with wireless remote and mounting on a skidloader quick attach plate. That way I can use it on the mini-skid, skidloader or my tractor loader !! But I'll also put a mount for it on the truck !! Very good informative video... Thank you August ❤️❤️
Oh I was also gonna say I just can't get over Kaitlin.... she's gone from a little girl to a young woman since I've been watching your vids. Every time I've seen her recently it just seems impossible 😳😅 Since she has an interest better step back a bit and let her do more work !! I'm sure she would enjoy it 😉😁
Nice to watch a tree felling video that is actually someone who knows what he's doing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with we mere mortals who own a chainsaw. Cheers
Really a privilege watching you work August, that was so clean and clockwork-like. I'm sure you have never seen my hoaky little channel and let me preface this by pointing out yes I am a little bargain basement country-hack. Not a big professional company with gear and trucks, etc. Just me some broken down saws that I barely keep running and some 6 year old ropes that I question each time I tie into, and my channels just me and a few followers so just mentioning this but I've started pulling more trees myself. I never used to. I was adamant about jacks and wedges only (since I work alone normally) but I did end up losing one on a jack last summer I thought I'd tell you about. Like you I've always been a "command the tree" guy. I don't like rushing through a cut and I take my time, like you said as long as the trees standing and you have command then take your time, don't rush the cut and make sure you have good holding fibers. And I always use a jack for anything with a backlean, etc. Just little cheap Harbor Freight 12 and 20 ton short profile bottle jacks, but they work excellent. I've pushed some big trees over with them in the past, a couple that I should have probably had a rope on like the big red oak 1 foot away from the homeowners house with all the canopy weight over the house, but a 20 and a 12 side by side pushed it right over and I had full command all the way. But I did lose one on a fence last summer,. It was a dead ash, and the holding wood turned out to be cork basically, and it tore and the tree pivoted on the stump and of course gravity took over at that point and I had to scoot and the tree went back onto the fence I was trying to avoid. Fortunately onl;y a few fence boards to replace so no biggy with the client but ever since if I have a big one with any lean or weight to the house, fence, barn etc I use a buddy of mine with a 16,000lb welding truck and rope it up. Anyway my point in all this was I still use a jack with the rope. I find the jack gives me that "command" of the tree you were talking about better than just wedges. I can pump the tree up a bit, tip and point it even easily with a little pretension on the rope. So I do a little pretension, then pump a few with the jack, then more pretension, more jack etc until I have it pointed directly in the direction I want it to go and then send it on its way. I have found the combo works good. You obviously didn't need it there, but I heard you mention a jack and when you mentioned the wedge giving an assist I was thinking a 20 ton jack at the base would work nicely with that big truck and wench of yours. Anyway that's how this old country hack roles now, I've been watching you pull them for years so I guess you just sort of rubbed off on me there a bit ha ha. Thanks for the great video, you are one of the finest tree cutters I've ever had the pleasure to watch I'm 64 years old and still like to learn so I watch you because I'm always picking up some ideas or sometimes just reinforcing things I already knew or believed. Maybe one day I'll get rich and buy some real gear and have a real tree service like you, until now tho I'm consigned to being half-price Harry, and shall remain the country-hack I am. You sir however, are the King of the woods. Shibboleth.
This is a big chestnut oak I did that had backlean and weight towards the house that I ended up pulling with a jack assist a few weeks back. The pretension on the rope gave me so much peace of mind... ua-cam.com/video/4IVE844ec_Q/v-deo.html
and this is a big red oak right next to the clients home with canopy weight over the house that I did a year or so back where I did not use a rope, and just used a 12 ton and 20 ton. Went perfectly, but I have to admit these days I'd have felt a lot safer on this one, with a guide rope. ua-cam.com/video/e2hTtdt2O8Q/v-deo.html
Totally appreciate your detailed explanations … what the issues are and how to control the outcome! Your patience with the process is very noticeable! Keep up the great work and God Bless! 🙏❤️🙏
You are great at teaching the thought process. To slow down and just look at what's going on. It's easy to say common sense but it's not really all that commom and lots has to be learned.
Balancing hinge width and additional pressure is the key to success here if everything is set up properly. Where the pro shines. Glad to see you backing up with a wedge. But im sure with a beefier pull set up you mightve omitted it.
Awesome stuff August! I try to throw my throw ball like you do, and I just go with what I know. Which is either throwing from between my legs or right beside me swinging it.
master class! it was cool to see the winch line sag while you were pounding in the wedge. definately was taking the strain off the rigging like you said.
Great video and explanation. Looked like your back was extra bothersome that day, feel for you. What's your thoughts/experience pulling over something a bit crispy like a dead or dying cedar? If pulling directly opposite the lean, will the hinge stay viable long enough before it breaks for gravity to work in your favor? Or will it break before it's committed to the desired lay and gravity causes havoc? Say with a similar amount of back lean as the tree in the video where even with some pulling tension the face cut kerf opens a bit. Thanks.
Great info, I’ve pulled thousands of back leaning trees and will add a couple further suggestions if I may: 1. If you’re unsure of your anchor point strength/rope over limb point, always pull the tree a little harder to test than you’ll need to pull to get it up and over so you can make sure nothing breaks. You’ll develop a tactile sense over time of how much pretension is just right. Always let some tension off after a test pull so you don’t…. 2. Too much pretension can cause the tree to barberchair, especially on species that are more susceptible to that, like alder, etc. If in doubt use a load binding strap to hold the trunk together. Let the tree speak to you as you start cutting and adjust tension as necessary. You’ll develop a great tactile sense over time and will need less and less adjustments at the winch as you get more and more experience.
I know it’s not appropriate for this ( or most) situation/s - but it would be really appreciated if you would give an explanation of why you never use a sizwheel. Maybe the next time you are wedging a side leaner without a pull rope. Enquiring Minds……….. Good work, excellent explanations, and calm demeanor - as always. Many Kudos!!!
😂😂😂yes...exactly....I knew it wasn't alone ...dudes just badass and the minute ones realizes it, you find yourself back to his channel...all in subscribed and looking forward to the next one...and back to the older kids too! ##MonkeyBeaver
If you climb the tree and attach the rope to the desired pull point rather than pull over a branch with the rope anchored at the base, do you require less pulling force for the same effect?
Yeah such good info. And if you don't have a firm understanding of how the hinge functions as the tree falls, put down your saw and do more research and find a solid mentor. The sketchiest felling I've seen was by guys who were just going off of what felling a tree "looks like" without understanding the purpose of each step. Standing there chasing the hinge for no reason, choosing the wrong dimensions of face cut, continuing to cut because it hasn't gone yet etc
It could be done that way. This type, the point is to cripple the tree whilst holding it up. We get the hinge exactly how we want it to look and then we just pull it over.
Refreshing to watch experience in action. Work smarter AND less hard. Work is still work. Well done... But, I would use a slingshot and fishing line first, to get to high rope in place.
As an amateur, I'm never going to attempt anything like this on my own. But I love watching your videos August, and learning how it's done properly. Great stuff!
At one time I used to think that just because I had a block in there..,.. thought it was going to double the pulling power..... But that particular rigging that you have there.... You must know... Only changes direction of pull... It's like a rope hanging over a branch with 100 lb weight on one side and 100 lb weight on the other... U-Pull 1,000 lb with your truck ... It puts 1,000 lb of pull on the tree. Am I right....? Now if there was a block up in the tree... Then you would have a mechanical advantage....
So did you have to anchor the truck ? You know... tie the truck to a stump .was the winch dragging the truck? August.... This was one of the most interesting videos.
I would have a n c h o r e d the truck to a tree..... So that I was like an old-timer doing something making it way better than it had to be.... You know what I'm saying... So that if A gust of wind came up.... Or suddenly you realized that you should have.... But you didn't listen to that little voice in your head that says.. don't do it like this do it like that. Why?... Because there's no guessing involved anymore it's overly designed to be safe.... Yeah but..... You watched your curf.... It was opening.... So that means you had more than enough pull.. I got it... I get it... You know what you're doing... You have the experience. You've been there you've done that... If you got the gut feeling about things... And you have good judgment you can do lots of things without having accidents. It's still amazes me how when you're using the crane.. you always seem to get the perfect Rigging position on the piece you're lifting and as soon as you cut it only lifts up about a half inch... And a lot of times hangs and does not swing and stays right over the cut...
Yes, We would want the back cut curf to be opening up, in your example, not the converse, if the bar is pinched, woe horse. She's sitting back on her.... If that happens could be fail, past point of "no return." Ahahaha! That's a "Harold's book of the obvious observation," from learn by doing, trial and error, horse sense guys. Old farmer speak. Ahahaha! Yea, The Hunicke & company, like you guys's tact. Keep it up, Thank You, I enjoy the videos. Yea August, I don't know if you like reading books, and, one I'm currently reading is: ANTIFRAGILE by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. Some of your modus-operendi reminds me of some what he writes about, in relation to risks. A good read, if you are that guy who likes to read too? More blue collar worker guys than we may surmise, actually do like reading too.
You obviously don't know what you are talking about or who you are talking about. There's always one armchair expert who has to open their big yap and tell us how ignorant they are. Congratulations. You are today's winner.
Love how your slowing the whole process down and teaching your daughter and putting Bob at ease and making him comfortable
With the background being perfectly still, you can see the tree going forward with every slam you make. Amazing work, completely in control!

August throws his throw ball like a hunter from 10k years ago. Old school cool 😎
The right gear AND the right knowledge is a powerful combination 👍👍
That was incredible...like an optical illusion. SKILL
Totally appreciate your detailed explanations … what the issues are and how to control the outcome! Your patience with the process is very noticeable! Keep up the great work and God Bless! 🙏❤️🙏
Really enjoyed watching this vid.
Great demonstration and explanation throughout on how to do it right , good job .
Great video August. I really like the advice at the end, take time to get it right, no need to hurry.
Great video August! Thanks for the well worded explanations and demonstrations.
Thank you for the outstanding teaching!
You are great at teaching the thought process. To slow down and just look at what's going on. It's easy to say common sense but it's not really all that commom and lots has to be learned.
Darn August ,,, Such a Pro…. 👍🏼👍🏼
August knows his stuff and is a tree falling professor!
Really nicely done. Thanks for the video 👍
August, you are a beast. A humble beast.
Yet another interesting lesson from the "master August".
Balancing hinge width and additional pressure is the key to success here if everything is set up properly. Where the pro shines. Glad to see you backing up with a wedge. But im sure with a beefier pull set up you mightve omitted it.
Awesome stuff August! I try to throw my throw ball like you do, and I just go with what I know. Which is either throwing from between my legs or right beside me swinging it.
Excellent as always sir.
A cool combination of science and art. 🙂
so much knowledge, so much skill!!!!!
Very educational and entertaining. Thankyou.
Very clever of you August. using the pull line to hide the saw progress view!
Very well done! Great work explaining your thougt process. You are definitely a master of your craft.
Nicely done!
Very instructive demonstration with good control. Turbulent wind gust are common in our region. Very unpredictable and challenging.
master class! it was cool to see the winch line sag while you were pounding in the wedge. definately was taking the strain off the rigging like you said.
Wonderfully done
Don’t bite off more than you can hew. 😉
Yer super calm. An little by little she done. Cheers
Master class… but I still held my breath 😊
As you were putting the wedge you could actually see the cable drop. So it was reducing the pressure on the cable and the rope.
Great video and explanation. Looked like your back was extra bothersome that day, feel for you.
What's your thoughts/experience pulling over something a bit crispy like a dead or dying cedar?

Say with a similar amount of back lean as the tree in the video where even with some pulling tension the face cut kerf opens a bit. Thanks.
My back is like that every day.
For the tree you describe it would probably be good to have multiple ropes/angles of pull.
@AugustHunicke thanks. Sorry about the back. I've noticed it seems you look more comfortable up in a tree than walking around on the ground lately.
@bradywatcherson498 ya
Great info, I’ve pulled thousands of back leaning trees and will add a couple further suggestions if I may:
1. If you’re unsure of your anchor point strength/rope over limb point, always pull the tree a little harder to test than you’ll need to pull to get it up and over so you can make sure nothing breaks.

"Don't attempt big things with small understanding"
Uncommon sense that should be common.
that was beautyfull.
nice fall and total command
I know it’s not appropriate for this ( or most) situation/s - but it would be really appreciated if you would give an explanation of why you never use a sizwheel. Maybe the next time you are wedging a side leaner without a pull rope. Enquiring Minds………..

With this tree, would doing the back cut first also be an option? Just trying to learn as much as possible for when these situations arise.

"The most sound advice, that has ever been spoken." If your not sure then just stop! Great job homie
Yep, at the end there, he was stopping every five seconds to eyeball the remaining hinge. No big hurry. Please! Super pro.
Do you gain mechanical advantage by going over the top and base tying instead of just choking off a tie at the top?
No
Hey August, a quick question... would one risk a barberchair if they freaked and pulled the tree over to aggresivelly?
Greetings from Poland :)
Yes
👍
Beautiful work but how does that not lead to a barber chair? I would have thought a back cut first or a bore cut back cut.
Its a good thing to square the winch spool (van)to the line of pull
Ya
Ever use a Treejack device?
what are those boots youve got on?
Technical Question...What is the size of the rope you used to apply control? Thanks, Larry

Get away with a bit less openness. Later close on substantial wood.

You could have left more of a hinge with that much tree. That was cutting it close.!
It was the perfect amount.

LOL! Augustus don't get out the blow gun for less than a 100 feet!🤣😂🤣
You sound like you been bumped in the head a few times by trees
That was pure luck. You had your rope so low that tree could have gone anywhere
Stay in school.

Haha. Must've been looking at the base tie! If watched from the start you can see the rope was tied wayyy up in the tree😊
Love that she's wearing a Buckin' hoodie! That's awesome!!
