I use either a light axe or a eastwing hammer. But, I'm not trying to influence the direction either. If they need to go where they are not leaning I pull 'em with a tractor.
 
#3-5 pound axe, although I have used my maul on occasion, sharpened it was a "do-it-all" tool for me.
 
I have a "fireside friend" from eastwing sorta a mini all steel maul. Painted it orange so I don't loose it. Don't have to swing very hard and that makes aiming all the easier.
 
18" estwing axe is my go to

Bud got one of those. Didn't too much like how it functioned as an axe, so I took a 7' grinder to it and thinned the cheeks a bit, back of the edge. Reduced their "chubbiness" there. Gave it a bit of a polish, with diamonds, at the edge. He likes it much better now. :D
