Alright guys. I wanna learn something that I do not understand!!
First I cut timber I the southeast US. TN to be specific. I run a 372xp with a 20" bar and a 390xp with a 24" bar. I get on average 2 18 wheeler loads a day. It's just me cutting and hauling, my father drags for me.
That's said how do y'all run such long bars on your saw?? My 372 will do pretty good with a 24" in popular or gum but oak, hickory, n other hard woods it's ok but not great. My 390 screams with a 24" bar and does pretty good with a 28". Are the woods y'all cut a lot easier to go thru??? No body that cuts timber that I know of around me uses anything bigger. I know out west there are crazy big trees does it just take forever to cut one down?? Someone explain how that works because here especially in a good sound white oak some of you guys would be so slow you would have to wedge every tree or bust them.
