Biggest chog I've done is probably about 5.5m when we were dismantling a spruce and trying to get 4.9 saw-logs out of it. I've seen one of the boys doing bigger, probably 6.5 to 7m but not as much as 9m. Done some fair size tops too, but nothing like the size of Mick's pic. Big pieces are always an adrenalin rush.

Big tops nicely placed get you out of the tree quicker, helping the crew on the ground, getting you home quicker.

I know what you mean, you can look up at a top for a long time gauging it's lean, It's only when you get into the back cut and it starts to move in the right direction you can relax a bit and enjoy the rush.
