[@mattshimmin5452]

I dig your videos for the climbing and the music! All around talented.

[@famasmaster2000]

I could watch these videos all day !! You are a master of your craft Billy. Wish I posessed a fraction of the knowledge. Lots of love to all today ♥️👍👍

[@alexarchambault5081]

Awesome to see new tree vids.

[@nomad-pq4yw8iy7v]

music is art it can be and do a lot of things it can tell a story, set a mood, bring a smile..... the list goes on and on. Looking forward to the Mac song. As per the usual ur vid's are a cut above. have a great week folks!

[@niemi5858]

Buckin, I have a great appreciation for your consistency in explaining the "Rhyme & Reason" for how you do that voodoo that you do so well in all of your content. As a retired tradesman (carpenter), and business man I have an even greater appreciation for the respect you show the trade itself and enough caring to ensure that those you reach develop the same respect. That you merge that philosophy with interpersonal skills that you have in treating others with the same respect and love that we all have for ourselves is the icing on the cake. Much love, Howard

[@mikeyyoyo6464]

niemi5858 wow Howard, respect to you & your words soldier 💪❤️👍

[@niemi5858]

Thank you Mikey! Enjoy your evening.

[@Redmech80]

Really enjoying all these videos.

[@everythingican]

👍🇨🇦😃 I just can’t get enough of these Bucking videos!

[@tylerboivin2936]

Some of the most interesting content on the internet. I could watch these vids all day long. Informative, inspirational, and interesting. The best compliment I can give though is that it actually made me want to comment...never feel the inkling. Cheers.

[@naratinesagidon3024]

Very fast efficient professional tree cutter!

[@bigwazza4271]

LOVE WATCHING YOU CLIMB BROTHER 👍😎 . NICE WORK..THANKS FOR ANOTHER AWSOME VID!✌

[@BuckinBillyRaySmith]

WELCOME GOOD SIR

[@ultrafarmer3069]

been recently working with an older tree climber. Much of the stuff he has been teaching me at first scared the crap out of me. But i find myself using it more and more, it's so much quicker if you only have small stuff to do to just use your tail or your climbing line to rig down the small stuff and natural crotch rigging blows my mind every time. Great video mate keep it up!

[@marianatequiero28]

@@BuckinBillyRaySmith my favorite video Billy … the music and going solo ☝️

[@patrickbass3118]

I know this is an old video but felt the need to add my piece - Buckin is an inspiration, he's the reason I was able to leave my full time job and start up in tree work. I am learning lots every day and doing climbing. Absolutely love it and find I like to keep it simple, I use minimal equipment and am surprised at how much can be done with so little. Like Billy says, "you can have all the fancy gadgets you want, but this is ALL you need right here." Much love and God bless

[@cathyannegiles1283]

What butiful music you have used in this video,in short lovely work and butifulmusic

Hi, Billy I go to work while listening to your song ”wood man” in the trucks. I'm improving my mood with your songs. Someday, I am looking forward to your new songs. Blues and country are the best! You can sing a song and play drums and blues harps You are wonderful!.

Give anything to be a Tree climber, I love your videos, I have tried to get someone to train me, but here now 20 years later and I still cant find any company, not even an experienced tree Arborist to show me the ropes to have to do it, nobody is up to teaching an old dog to new tricks

Hello My good friend Billy Grandma Gipp is up there in heaven watching over you and keeping you safe in those trees! God Billy she loved you to death . She also loved to hear your mum sing as well , as so do i. What I would love to say about you Billy is your so pure and honest in your words and work. No fancy stuff just get the job done nice and right . GRANDMA'S WORDS BILLY before she past were . If it's not broke don't fix it ! If it does the job then that's just fine . And they were based on you 😁we do what we do because we do it . From heart and soul , from loving and self trust we all love you Billy and thanks for making grandma's last days happy xx

[@sunnysacto]

I often climb with extra ropes to lower large branches and drop rope after branch is down. Hardcore with no gloves

[@tonyrobbins6]

Another great video. It would be awesome if you showed how you tie off from one tree to another from top to bottom. Do you tie off at the bottom of one tree before you climb? or do you have someone on the ground tie off the tail before you attach your safety line at the top when your ready to move to another tree.?

[@Torsee]

Man you make it look easy! 👍👍

[@sailorbuckobuckley5217]

Great vid and music Thanks for your great vibe on these vids and it really shits me that you make a very technical climb look so effortless and easy nurture your gifts big fella and thrive in your life Thanks again for the vids Jb

GLAD YOU LIKED

[@gastoncannon4710]

I don’t know if you are crazy and good, or good and crazy, haha. Love watching you because you must be OK to post the video. ❤️👍❤️👍❤️👍. Could I tell my favorite chainsaw story? Back in the 50s a 17 year old was looking for a way to make a couple of dollars for the weekend when he came upon an old man standing beside his wood pile wondering how to get the wood cut. The young man said he would do it for. $2. The old man said get what you need out of the shed there, and I’ll be back in a few minutes to see how you’re doing. The YM found an old bow saw and started cutting wood. When the OM came out he said you’re doing pretty good but use that yellow chainsaw and you’ll finish before I get back from town. About an hour latter he came back and found the YM about passed out. What wrong he ask. That chainsaw about killed me, I had trouble cutting one pole. The OM said it should be real sharp, let me try it. He pulled the cord, and the saw went bzzzzzzzzz, the YM said, “WHAT’S THAT NOISE”!

Got to love the old school rigging tricks! I love it! Good to see your comment!

[@deesestrees]

I don’t know how many new climbers I see who don’t know how to climb without mechanical devices. Climbers need to know how to Blake out of a tree with just a rope, etc. your right, we can’t lose the basic techniques and climbing skills.

[@mercoldswfo]

Does anyone know about old 60's McCullouchs? I have a 1-43 I just got that leaks gas thru the air filter screw opening on top of the carb. I tried plugging it, but now it hardly runs. I'd like to buy a new carb, but cannot find one.

[@garrisonaw]

I'm not questioning that you're good. But you're also reckless. At 20:25, you're damn lucky your hand didn't get caught between the rope and the tree, cuz you would have lost all four fingers. OSHA would have a field day with you.

One rope works when homeowner is on ground to untie, if no help, I drop rope with branch, climb with extra ropes. Safety first, always work within your skill limit
