Tim,

Yes, but I am not talking about second growth pulpwood. A few months ago I had to take down an old oak with at least a 3 foot butt, that's diameter not circumference. I hated to do it, but it had been struck by lightning and split in half right below the canopy. Since it was a widow maker, I called in a tree guy. Right after he started the second notch cut, he stopped his Stihl to touch up the chain. I told him to try my Husky 266 instead. When he got done, he said something like," That's a real saw! I gotta get one of these!"
