great tips...i may or may not try them myself. I still have a few years to practice on trees just as big but farther from house. I am trying to do each one with at least one guy line, I have the rope winch(instead of truck) to pull against the lean if i need(which I haven't had to yet, wedges do a lot even on these tall ones.) I'd also probably buy two guylines of the 3/4" 20k lb caliber like someone said if i DID end up doing them. I am getting good with throw line so I can def hit the tops of these guys. bet believe me, I will NOT try these if I have any doubts and I am a big safety guy.
edit: they are just too close to house, and 3 of them at that, for comfort. I need some actual SUNLIGHT in my yard! I wouldn't cut them down if I didn't need the firewood anyway.
