The trees don't take the course
Well said.
==========
"Safety was always the primary point......"
Also well said.
Consensus of opinion by virtually everyone I have ever heard that took the class was just that.
Any program that emphasizes PPE and particular cutting methods to avoid danger is a great idea.
===========
I wouldn't suggest that there is a perfect program that teaches everyone all they'll ever need in a world as complex as falling.
We all have to understand that:
1) There are trees that no one can fall safely.
2) There are trees that each one of us cannot fall safely, but that others can.
(Look, if there are skills and knowledge that you have picked up in your AO, just respect that in a physical world with different woods and conditions there are other cutters that have skills and knowledge in their Area of Operations that you do not.)
3) At points in our work day, work settings or our lives there are trees that we could formerly drop safely but its time to step away just now.
============
The saying no to dead trees that Polycop got on level I may be just from those instructors or intended for an introductory group.
That's not a bad thing.
