The Humboldt is primarily for speed of production

David, your chicken scratch is way better than Kyle's 😁. A lot of it is about the root flare and the logging system that is going to be used. If you can locate the hinge near the root flare then you minimize any scale loss because that area is outside of the scaling cylinder, which is measured down from the smaller diameter of the upper log end.

Ground based logging systems definitely like low stumps. Cable is slightly more tolerant of a higher stump (at least around here).

Don't feel bad Kyle. Between the two of us, we could put on the world's worst art show. My drawings at work are the stuff of legend :^D

I use a Humbolt most of the time...mainly for the stump shot. It helps get the tree away from the stump, thats important for me using a tractor.
