I ain't trying to argue either Mike, I'm just frustrated.
My advice (and others) was never 'Leave it to the professionals', my advice was "Don't touch it at all, because the professionals wouldn't." But in return, we get a "LOL, we're gonna anyway" and "I'm taking all I can get no matter what" from the OP, and other guesses from the gallery on how they would do it. "They" aren't there -- and do "they" want the responsibility of giving internet falling advice that could very well be misconstrued, misapplied, and end in the injury or death of another person??
"Well you see, this guy on a website said to cut trees similar looking to this one, this way, and somehow it killed my son who was standing next to me? I don't understand, because they sounded like they knew what to do?"
That tree also didn't 'have to' come down, it was a choice to pluck it out for firewood.
There's is no, 'How can I do it and not die' advice that can be given over a computer, to someone with little to no experience, on a tree that should never be touched unless it was an actual necessity. Even then, that tree is a candidate for roping/cabling over, blasting, or a 100' lift.
Anyone catch the moral of my story about Sam? What was the big mistake he made? Anyone? I'll wait for some answers before I give it away.
