I Misjudged This Tree and FAILED… Learn To Avoid This COSTLY Mistake

🪓 I Misjudged This Tree and Failed… Learn How To Avoid This Costly Mistake 🌲

Even with years of experience, things don’t always go to plan. In this video, I take you through a real-world tree felling job that didn’t go as expected — and I’ll show you exactly why it failed and what you can learn from it.

The job: three-stem birch, limited space, strong wind, and high stakes. I handled the first two stems cleanly, but on the third, I made critical errors in judging the hinge strength and lean — and the tree missed its intended fall zone.

📌 What you’ll learn in this video:
✅ The role of holding wood in controlling felling direction
✅ How wind and decay affect your cutting decisions
✅ Why hinge strength is more important than pulling angle
✅ How to spot signs of potential failure before you make the back cut
✅ The importance of repetition and experience in high-risk removals

This isn’t just a fail — it’s a teachable moment. Watch closely, and take your tree felling skills one step further.
