    Felling with D. Douglas Dent

    Yeah, thanks. But try not to over think the simple things. Like I did with Stump Shot before reading Dent's book. I declare, Stump Shot has sure mechanical features in the functionality of the felling cut. Features both real and imaginative applied at the stump to see a tree to it's good...

    Until I bought Dent's book in the late 1970's, no one I knew could explain, least to my satisfaction, what stump shot was. Why the need for it. Were there caveates? Not long before that I recall reading the company OSHA safety manual and it said, ' 'In felling practice the backcut shall...
