Target is where you intend the tree to fall

wow....looks like eagles wings........mind you if the job had been done properly in the first place the tree would of been on the ground any way.

I assume its only me that thinks there is nothing natural looking about these "coronet" trees!

 

Im reading all these posts about coronet cuts but I still dont understand why.

No Butch, "A Lay" is what you end up with, when you cop off with a mucky woman on a saturday night out.

Just wondered, what with this day and age of liability, i'm suprised that whoever runs the park is happy to have trees like that around. What say you monkeyd ?
