    That isn't the problem though.. I just dont want to be pulled in if it splits.

    I've a pine tree to fell tomorrow in a woodland and the objective is to not damage anything around it. My problem is its head leaning heavily enough and if felled from the ground it will do damage. So I was going to spike up the straight part of the stem and drop it off. It's not wide enough for a bore cut so I'm wondering what cut to use to avoid it splitting/barber chairing. ( I done the best I could with the photos.) Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

    I use a sling chocked around the tree with a caribiner and the climbing line through it and keep it under the flipline. Works for me Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
