Red Oak

I'm not much felling lately. mostly up on the work platform pruning. but here is a medium red oak, 26 inches dbh or so. It was a tight shot, to prevent damage to other trees.
the saw here is a husqvarna 395xpg, rakers were a little low since I've been cutting softer wood much.

Nice man! Looks like a good cut and safe exit 👍

It went nicely, happy about the way it went
I'm mostly up on work platforms for pruning along roads, so it feels great being able to cut one like this, every once in a while.

Sounds like you might be a little too aggressive on cutting the rakers

[@DUTCHHUSKY66Treesandforest]

Yes indeed I was, used this saw on softwoods a lot, this tree was a bit harder
