    I had a call from a friend one day who was all wound up cutting a tree so I went over to help out. He had a poor notch and back cut and it had set back towards his folks house. Tossed a rope up in it and set up above his cuts while he maintained tension on the rope. I got her all cut up and casually walked out to him and said lets pull it over. She came over as nice as you please and he said I can'r believe how calm you were to wit I told him it doesn't help to get all worked up and panic. Stay calm and think clearly it will help you stay alive. Good show all around there Buckin!

    Its been a few years since I started watching your channel. I was cutting a bunch of firewood and selling it and doing some tree work for friends and family. About a month ago i was helping a group of neighbors widen out a road so a ditch could be put in and there were several 14"-18" poplars that needed cut down and i had an absolute ball with it. Notching them and laying then right next to the road. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and love of what you do.

    I started watching your channel since I’m clearing 40 acres of land by myself. I realized as blessed as I am I may have missed my calling. When you talked about the joy you experience at the end of the video I knew exactly how you felt. It was the exact feeling I had doing the same thing today at the farm. I’m told old to start a new career, but I’m enjoying the hell out of what I’m doing.

    Buckin billy. Awesome ❤. Ive done more cutting and chainsaw milling than the average guy. I'm a Subaru logger.logs on the roof, and loaded to the nines. My saw sits in my front seat cause I can't stuff any more wood in it. Ive burned up a saw and have gone threw chain. All self taught.with no utube. 5 years later you taught me how to properly sharpen a chain. And then everything about chains to follow😂 😀. How to tune a saw! Obviously ive needed help in that department. Lol I love your channel. Really means a lot to me. And love how you explain things yet keep it simple. I don't know what to say. I voukd ramble on for quite a while how you have upped my knowledge (hence enjoyment) through your channel. Can't Thank-you enough. Very appreciated.

    Nice job Buckin' ! I've seen too many guys identify the lean and then assume they can just cut until it falls over. Every cutting plan needs to include when to stop making the back cut. Every size-up needs to include looking for branches that can interfere with the cut tree's initial movement forward. Keep preaching about the subtle things that can mess us up!

    So what you do is with those 2 trees is you get a length of chain, climb up let's say half way up both trees, chain the trees together with enough slack that the favorably leaning tree will be 2/3rds the way to the ground when you cut it. Have the "rear" tree cut with just enough hinge wood to keep it standing while you cut the lead tree down. The lead tree falls and gives the rear tree a hell of a yoink and the rear tree falls on to the lead tree.
    I've never cut a tree down so take my advice with that in mind.

So when it starts to go ,it'll pull a bit more on one side ,think I did something like that many years ago felling/falling, when trying to get leaning trees to fall/pull away from where they naturally want to fall? Nice tidy work by the way,perfect. enjoyed the video, my back is getting sore just watching you de-limb😮😂

    Hey Buckin! I got a question, any tips on lining up the two cuts that form your notch? I only cut firewood but I try to utilize the Humboldt cut so the tree breaks less and I get a square base on the tree. I have a hard time lining up the cuts when I make the cut the angles up. I usually end up with a gapped face and it works but it's a bit to get there. Definitely not as slick as you pros
