Sectioning down a Widowmaker in 4 bite size chunks

Here's the rest of the sectioning down of that lodged hickory.

This is a moderately sized tree but the principles the same, make a larger tree a smaller one before dropping the stem.

This one was done in 4 sections. Taller trees can take twice as many sections. With each section there are two key benefits.

* The tree's shorter with each section removed

* The tree's thinner in diameter with each section removed.

##DISCLAIMER: This is not advice or instruction on how to take down a lodged tree (they call them Widowmaker's for a reason). This video is just to show those interested how I bring these down. Always be sure you know what you are doing before cutting any tree. Nuff said.
