I'm not sure what technique you are using. But there are easier ways to cut a heavy leaner like that. Without putting your body in the kill zone if it barber chairs. Be safe out there.

You are correct . You can see it in the video but the tree has already had the top cut out of it by the power company so there is only 25 foot of the tree left on the stump . The reason I cut it this way was to get the best logs out of what was left as they will be taken to the sawmill .

I know it looked ugly but the result was a nice straight buck with only a small spot about the size of a coffee cup that pulled grain from the stump.

@@hawkforgeusa1014 Well good. I know in videos, we don't always get to see the whole picture. Many of my videos don't show the obstacles and hazards in play. Stay safe, stay sharp 👍
