I was wondering why there were so many ants around the base of my pine trees. You literally saved my life from the lack of knowing about how ants could be processing the tree, from the inside. Thank you Buckin! Perfect timing!
@@stormytooman1947 True...but you've gotta pay attention to the Drywall Ants...they're the ones that set everything up in the first place. Probably want to keep a steady flow of Painter Ants to keep that from happening in the first place, 'cause I've never once seen a Finish Carpenter Ant....they're all a bunch o' bloody hacks, I tell ya!
The way you line up your face cuts my friend…it’s a thing of beauty. One day I’ll be there, thanks for all you do Buckin’. Impacting people in a positive way more than you could imagine. Take care!
Billy’s been cutting professionally every day for 30 years. I don’t think any of his watchers are ever going to be as good. But we are learning a heck of a lot along the way.
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith Well deserved, sir! Your content is top notch, and your generosity in life sets a good example for all of us. Keep bucking, and bringing us along for the ride :-)
Perfect end message! I'm a plumber in the San Francisco, CA area. That is the same message I pass on to everyone. Be honest, work hard, help everyone! Treat others exactly how you want your loved ones treated! New subscriber based on your final message!
The take away from today: "You can't get to excited by all these funky cuts and guys who triple ozone layer this and that" Buckin you do have a way with words as you most certainly do have a way with trees! I had quite the laugh and that was a first for today! 🤙😎🌲🌳🙏
I'm an 8 acre homestead owner in NE Georgia, and it's only been one year. Most of my life has been in the suburbs. Bought my first gas powered (Echo 18") chainsaw at Home Depot less than year ago and I haven't cut anything over 40' high yet on our property. What I really enjoy about your videos is how it's a combination of technical knowledge and life experience. You've turned into an art. As I move up in my tree cutting skills, your videos have let me see more than the tree. I look for the wind, the ants, the limbs, the lean, the slope, the chain, the wedges, my stance, and the surrounding trees. The old saying, "you don't see the forest for the trees," is quite apt in felling. Thank you for your videos.
I live in SE GA, howdy neighbor! Im 53 now but back when I was 21 some friends and I worked for a company trimming right-of-ways for the EMCs in our areas. It mostly included bucket truck work with hydraulic saws, we did alot of scrub brush and felled alot of trees. Them tall pines will really get your heart beating wont they! It was felling them accurately that used to make me sweat the most. The largest we did was an old dead oak tree. We had a three foot bar and it met with a one inch of overlap when cut from both sides. I didnt make alot of money at it but I really enjoyed that job. Stay safe!
your never going to go wrong as you learn from real pros like Buckin...he's a great teacher of northwest forestry work...much like Buckin I've been chopping firewood since the age of 10...I'm now 62, and much of what Buckin teaches I learned from my grandfather in the northern hardwood and pine forests of Roscommon county, Michigan. Good luck and stay safe as you become familiar with the tree felling skills.
@@theobserver9131 What's wrong with his name? We all know Biden is on the Ghislaine Maxwell list, we've all seen him perving over kids. Or are you suggesting it's dangerous to speak honestly about such a dangerous man?
I would like to say something to everyone that watches this channel. This man works harder than any other RUclips creator that I know of. On top of that, he does it with good intentions. He isn’t trying to get rich. He is trying to help people, and make the world a better place. I know this to be true because he hasn’t sold out to a bunch of sponsors. I don’t think that there is anything wrong with accepting sponsorships at all, as long as they are companies that have good products and integrity. Buckin is so serious about this that he has passed up many opportunities just to make sure that his love and integrity remains unquestionable. I respect that a lot… We receive so much from his work, and he doesn’t even charge us for it… After watching him for 6 or 7 years now, I am certain that he is deserving of way more than he is getting. I would like for us to get together and start paying the man. It’s only right. All of us chipping in through donating on his website, or super thanks on RUclips, would change his life. I fully believe that we owe this man for his work…. I don’t know how this will go over, but I don’t care. I want to see Buckin and his family get all that they deserve…. It’s the least I can do. Thank you all in advance! I know that I am writing this to a bunch of great people!
I have watched a lot of guys cutting down trees on RUclips Buckin. No one goes out everyday and gives a blow by blow tutorial on every type of tree with a rational explanation for every cut and every wedge driven. That is why we love you Billy Ray!
I have a dead ash tree way too close to my home and have been cutting it little by little a few months ago it took my front steps and a railing so decided to remove limbs for weight and yesterday cutting the stump of the fallen piece it was full of carpenter ant really bad! Thanks for the informative videos I have been watchin for days now on free time learning tons of tips and do nots! I appreciate your knowledge and passing it to folks like myself!
Your continual message to be good to others is like a spiritual drumbeat hopefully everyone eventually catches on! Good to see a guy like you delivering the message. Thanks
LMAO not enough jam in the universe to make it happen 😂! As always you make it look effortless, if you get bored and want to cut some southern wood I have 30ish acres to cut for our sawmill here in east Tennessee, I'll put you up, feed ya deer meat, and show ya the sites! Stay safe and God bless
New to the channel. Still learning yet. Love it. Stopped at 14:10 to see the cool saw holder. Hey!!! You've got MY identcal (same wear and all) two-stroke gas tank I inherited from my dad. Mixed quite a few batches in there, still a relative novice though at 71. Thank you for posting!!!
I lived and worked at a remote sawmill in the late 70's, early 80's. We mainly handled (Australian) mountain ash, which grow up to 300 ft tall and up to 14ft in diameter, we got up to 70 tons of timber from a single tree. Every one of them had a "heart", which is the rotten ant infested core, hearts were roughly a meter (3ft) in width. the lowest 15-20 ft of the trunk was filled with a soft, red clay like substance left by the termites (ants). Ocassionally we got a log with ants still living in it, the nest woud fall out and a couple of yards of clay and ants would land on the floor and bring the mill to a halt while we shovelled it into a trailer. PS: Nice job with the chainsaw, and I loved the goodwill message at the end. :)
I recently cut down a tree in my yard w the same infestation, exactly as u describe just not nearly as large. Does that “clay” like substance have any use? What is it exactly? Is it the ants defecating out the wood they’re eating?
Your experience with cutting trees is impressive. What is even more impressive is reading through the comments seeing the impact you are having on people.
Buckin you are a gift to this world, thank you for your message of love and kindness. You are raising the world up buddy, keep up your good work. Big love from Québec!
The variability with each and every scenario is mind boggling. The fact that you could do such an amazingly calm play-by-play in such a precarious situation is awesome. Nice work. Buckin’ Eh!
Amazing skill set! I had more than a few Doug fir spray water. Never seen a cedar that eaten up. Thanks for your derivation to kindness and hard work done right!
You're a good person sir. I know nothing about tree felling / woodsman work, but I find your depth of knowledge and skill awesome and inspiring. You have my sub. Keep going 👍🏻
Awesome video! After seeing so many wannabes who don't have a clue, doing stupid dangerous stuff, it sure is nice to see someone falling timber that actually knows what they're doing. Well done, you just got a new subscriber.
It makes me feel better knowing at least one other person feels like I do about helping and building up others. Needed to see this. Thank you kind sir.
Thank you Al. Wow that limb is crazy how it shaved it down. Great bunch of cedar on the ground. Love the different scenarios. Love ya brother thank you Buckin. 🌲❤️🌲👊🪓
Of all the different variety of videos that I watch ....you are without a doubt the most informative knowledgeable and by far the most caring and sincere person posting videos that I've ever watched. As you say......be good my friends and work hard.
Check out the vids where the fellers use a hydraulic jack in a pocket. I did that last year on a big leaner hard maple. Rotated that sucker right off the lean and dropped it on the pin!
I rarely get jealeous of other people, i tend to do my own thing. But i'll admit, i do get jealeous of your experience in cutting, amazing work! i love watching!
Shout out to Brothers Tree Service of Watertown, CT !!! They came and took a dead Ash down for me and when we got to talking, we found we are both followers of your channel. Thanks to Brian and his crew for a fantastic job!!! He looked at my saw and the first thing he said was , "gotta get down in the gullet"!
I've been subscribed for several years. Maybe 5 or 6 even. If I subscribed before my latest job change, it might have been 7 years. My point? The previous video I watched earlier today was the first of your videos that have been suggested to me by RUclips in 2 or more years. What's up with that? I'm glad I'm back in your face, though, and love your content. It's always clean, entertaining, and enlightening. What more can a senior citizen ask of a youngster like you? Nothing on earth. Of course, the best thing I have is a beautiful woman at my side, and 23 (and counting) grandchildren. That is the frosting on the cake of life. Their parents gave my bride and I plenty of tough times, joyful times, and the times in between, but the sweetest thing is their children who love me unconditionally, and almost always have a smile for me. I spoil them with knowledge, not treats, too. When they are tiny, but interested in life, I carry them outside and teach them the colors of my bride's nice flowers, and what types of grasses, trees, shrubs, flowers, chickens, cats (to eat the mice that feed on the chicken feed), mourning doves, sparrows, hawks and falcons, the infrequent raccoons, and the even more infrequent mink... I don't let them think mink will be nice because they are nasty animals. I've heard of only one person who has tamed a mink, and that's Joseph Carter The Mink Man, whose channel is very cool.
You definitely know your stuff Billy. I'm 64 and a retired Carpenter but way back I did some tree work. Never a climber but a decent ground man. Hauling and chipping is hard work Brother as you well know.
Taught the be kind lesson today. My son and I helped load a trailer of furniture and supplies for our older neighbor, I brought along my grand daughter to help. We worked hard for an hour and got a jar of home made pickles for payment. It was a perfect lesson in how to just be a good person and help someone out.
I’m surprised when a cedar isn’t rotten , it’s the hemlock that scare me the most , look up ⬆️ always . I love your falling lessons, have a great day Billy 👍🇨🇦
Cut a little 3' hemlock that was obviously rotten a few years ago. It was near the driveway, so a threat to anybody coming up it. It broke apart all over my driveway. It was a good 3-4 hours before I could pick up/buck all the "Tree Trash". Wood was self-splitting, practically blew apart into firewood on its own. Beatiful trees, though.
I've been battling depression and anxiety for close to 15 years now. I love your channel and your positivity really helps me. Thank you so much for being you! :)
While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us! That means you're not insignificant! Our awesome Creator suffered greatly to bring us to Him! Hugs to you, and I will be praying for you! Don't know where I'd be without Him. Life can still be hard anyway. You do have an enemy who lies to you. Don't believe those lies. Look for the truth in Christ. Brian.
I've only watched a handful of tree felling videos and must say that this video had me pucker up😳 I really have so much respect for your trade. Of all the power tools available, the chainsaw is one of the three things in life that I'm afraid of: 1. My mother (even at my age and size) 2. The tax man 3. Chainsaws Thanks for the video and taking time to edit and share!
This is why I love your work, when you know you are not in danger of hitting anything, you take the time to show people what is good or bad, before bad happens. NAILED IT.
Nice cutting buckin! I took down 4 cedars today. However they were only about 8 inch diameter at the trunk. 😂 I’m just a home owner but I practice your techniques even on the small stuff. See you tomorrow!
Very engaging video. Thanks for sharing your skills and thought process. And thanks for the uplifting words at the end. Always good to hear a reminder to be kind and helpful
You do a great job , I enjoy your work immensely . It's great to see you use a variety of saws , I used to use Stihl , MC culloch and Dan arm .. crocked now but your show brings back memories . 👍🇬🇧
Buckin. As always you nail the undercut. What a skill that only comes from cutting a few thousand of them. Thank you for sharing the knowledge you have learned along your journey. Till the next one. ❤

Carpenter ants can't chew on sound wood. They chew on rotting wood.

I watch these videos all the time and it has helped this with my woodland management so much. And the love it's just amazing. Amazing bless you.
You are a true gentleman and a darn good tree feller. That was awesome.
The cut, beautiful. The saw... animal! Tuned to perfection. That engine jumps at the sligest trigger pull.
Listen to that outro..... that's how everybody should think and act... but rarely the case. Good one bud.
The way you do the cuts and the explanation of things. Is a thing of beauty. Well done my friend. Well done

"Work hard, be honest, and be nice to one another" heck yeah man!
This is why I love your work, when you know you are not in danger of hitting anything, you take the time to show people what is good or bad, before bad happens. NAILED IT.
Nice cutting buckin! I took down 4 cedars today. However they were only about 8 inch diameter at the trunk. 😂 I’m just a home owner but I practice your techniques even on the small stuff.
See you tomorrow!
This is one of his best videos.
Very engaging video. Thanks for sharing your skills and thought process. And thanks for the uplifting words at the end. Always good to hear a reminder to be kind and helpful

That fell was both terrifying and amazing at the same time. I’ve seen too many shatter looking like that middle.
