Awesome. What an amazing tree. I was not expecting it to be only 60ish years old though.

Good job guys. Planning takes time and stuff like pushing in a track costs money too. You will use that big bar again, no doubt. Stay safe. I don't know how you fellas do stuff but I used to keep alternate bars ready with chain in a box I made up. I used heavy cable ties to tie chains onto the bars.

Takes me back to the 90s, when I was dropping and milling 165 year old pine and macrocapa in Hawkes Bay. Loved it,hard on the body .I turned all the smaller bits, into firewood. Used D 9 dozer to clean up. It was all on one farm. Shot 169 possums out of the trees first. That's why the farmer wanted the trees gone. In the middle of the drought, he decided to burn the rubbish, it caught onto the stumps, and burnt for weeks. The IDIOT, had to pay the firebrigade thousands of dollars to try and control the fire. It burnt underground caused by the flammable gum.

Chur the brothers and sisters. Matty, I wish you'd consider taking on a tutor role. You're one of very few operator's that blend safety and production at such a high level. You'd make an excellent tutor, perhaps something to consider for when you get too old for running around the hills with an 090 on yer shoulder 💪 Prior preparation and planning prevented a piss poor performance. Stump audit... 10/10. Greeting from the Southern Island

Hi. That was a monster of an Old Man Pine. You and the team showed plenty of skill and safety with bringing it crashing down. Well caught on camera. I worked for 34 years between 1972 and 2006 on different farms all over the Wairarapa Region,especially out east of Masterton. I witnessed all the conversions of sheep and cattle farmland to forestry. I understand it’s still going on. I’ve always liked your videos. I’m really impressed by your work and safety ethic, the teams camaraderie,and your family values. Keep it up because I know life can be a struggle at times. Greetings to you and your mates from Matamata New Zealand.

This tree and bar size must of been a roller coaster of thinking from game time, to party time. Bet it felt great to get it down and the risk over. That stump looks mint bro, counting the size. What do you even do with tree this size in terms of sending it to a mill? I guess it's how long is piece of string and what mystery lurk in the heart of the wood and any knots.

Much light on wedges, 3 would be my minimum to deal with that. 3ft bar with a scarf bore could have easily put that down. My personal record is 7ft with a 3ft bar and 3120XP. However as it all went to plan..... 👍
