Can you sell those pines for pulp?

Selling 3" as pulp, 6-9" as chipn-saw, 9-11", as logs, 11-14" as logs, 14"+. Different prices for each.

We did this and much to my surprise, tree grow; who knew.

Sixteen years later and I see a few more should have come down and are now too big to drop without a professional topping them and taking them down.

That reminds me, wood doesn't grow on trees ya know! lol

One thing you need to remember is when a tree grows in the middle of a field it's much better able to withstand things like high wind. When they grow in the woods they grow taller to get to the canopy and light. Once you start cutting the trees around them down some of the ones left standing are no longer able to withstand the same winds and other forces they once did. Shade is nice but not having an unexpected tree fall where you don't want it to is usually nicer.

Good deal. From the pics it looked like they were good enough to attract a mill's interest.

Been a while since I've posted. Had to take some time off with a broken foot but back at it the last two months.

What kind of stump grinder is that! It looks HUGE compared to my TSG-50.
