Avoid These Most Common Tree Felling Mistakes

🪓 Avoid These Most Common Tree Felling Mistakes 🌲

Tree felling might look simple on video — but one wrong move with a chainsaw can cause serious injury or worse. In this video, I break down the most common mistakes people make when cutting trees, and more importantly, how to avoid them.

Whether you're working in the forest or handling backyard removals, knowing what not to do is just as important as good technique. From kickback, barberchairs, and widowmakers, to poor footing and one-handed sawing — this guide could save you a hospital trip (or more).

📌 What you'll learn:
✅ How to avoid the most dangerous chainsaw handling mistakes
✅ Why cutting above shoulder height is a serious risk
✅ What a “barberchair” is — and how to recognize the warning signs
✅ Why stump zone clearing and two-handed control are essential
✅ How to spot hidden hazards like “widowmakers” before it’s too late

This is essential viewing for anyone who works with trees — whether you're a beginner, weekend warrior, or professional arborist.
