This is a white oak that is in my front yard between two of my buildings. I trimmed it 4 years ago when I bought the place to lighten the side load. As you can see it has a hollow split between the stems. If either side rips off it will land on a building causing damage. I could throw a chain around it to hold the two sides together and lighten it up on the sides a little more, or remove it. If I took it down I could still get a log or two out of it. What would you guys do?
