Time to put up or shut up! This morn I'm on my way to down my first tree over a friends place. The trees I'll be doing today are not located near anything that can be damaged. This video will be in my head while I'm cutting. Lets see how it goes.
I am not sure I understand why we are turning a woodlot into smashed junk to benefit a species (deer) that have proliferated to the point of being a nuisance in so many areas. It would make more sense to do proper crop tree release and the incidental benefit would be beneficial to deer
Creating wildlife habitat is just a different woodland management objective. Some interventions will intersect (like it does here, freeing up the crown of other neighboring trees). Promoting tree growth isn't necessarily what you need if you're looking for wildlife. Might not be what you're hoping to get (it's not what I'm looking for) but if it works for them...
Yeah, more hogwash invented by someone who at some point try to sell you something. The white oak this buffoon is hacking up looks to have just been reaching the age to produce acorns. And would have, in the long term, fed deer just fine. Now it will just be a food plot for bugs and mushrooms. Now y'all might enjoy ruining a perfectly good mast tree on your property just because some dumbass says it's the only way to make "habitat" but doing that to a young white oak on my property will get you thrown in the creek to help create some "habitat" for the turtles and gators. Stupidest shit I've seen on UA-cam.
It's name is "conventional face cut" if you're going to be specific and explain terminology, get it right. it is not all that common any more because the Humboldt face cut (or undercut) leaves a square butt which allows for better recovery of lumber from the felled trees.
The ‘Hummer’ is a more difficult cut for the average DIY guy. Mostly here for visual learning and NOT terribly concerned with terminology. If you’re so wound up about terminology then make the perfect video and someone will complain that its to complex. If the goal is to show your ass and expertise in terminology it worked.
what a drag.. right when video gets to the main part, some guy in orange t-shirt stands right in front of the camera.. that's messed up....
Great Insight & Straight forward 👍🏻 points determining just how & why ...quickly set the direction cutting tree safely!
Thank you. This makes great sense.
In front of the camera!?

Not a HINGE CUT
“How to make your shitting land into a place a shitty deer hunter can be successful” should be the name of the video
