I wish I had seen your videos years ago when I was cutting my own firewood. I did so many things wrong and couldn’t sharpen my chain properly at all, my saw was constantly cutting on an angle and I couldn’t figure what I was doing wrong. Now that I am unable to use a saw anymore and after seeing most of your videos I can help my family do things safely when cutting and I do all of the chain sharpening for most of the neighbours and I also do the maintenance on our owns saws. Thanks for all the good tips you have taught me
He is a great fellow. My whole family watches. From me all the way down to my two year old. Thanks for keeping the content clean and friendly. God bless in Jesus Christ name
@@JGunit Buckins been around for most of the time RU-vid has been out. To say guys like Mr beast or Casey neistat wont be legends would be foolish and they are RU-vid stars as well. Buckin different than any other RU-vidr by far and while he may not go down as the most popular he should go down for the most genuine. And let’s not forget that he’s probably been pushing the kindness message most of his life well before youtube came about.
As always, appreciate your experience in falling trees and the focus on safety. We just had a young guy killed climbing a dead deciduous tree that broke off at ground level while he was up it. It fell on him. Seems to me that experience is the great leveller in all of this and, having watched you teaching your son the ins and outs of tree climbing and falling, nothing is a substitute for it.
Id love nothin more than to be able to go out in the woods with you and learn the buckin ways. The mix of your old school knowledge and the buckin knowledge is awesome. The fact youre a husky man helps too! Lol stay safe bud
Thanks for taking the time to explain the details. I am gaining confidence in felling plans and correcting mis-match cuts and/or sighting errors in the undercuts but I still - and will likely always - tune in and pay attention when the veterans / pros are speaking. Of all the mid-life crisis hobbies I could have chosen ... I'm glad I picked this one :)
Beautiful. Great work Buckin on and off the stump. You sir are changing lives and helping people be better at what they do and in life. Love ya brother. Thank you Buckin. 🌲❤️🌲👊🪓
Like I said before Bucking i've been cutting since I was 18 I'm 40 now I love when you explain things because I still learn so much and that's a fact I've learned so much from your videos and they've helped me up my game so much more even though I've been cutting for a long time climbing for a long time I still can soak up so much thank you so much God bless
Good morning Buckin Billy Ray, love you. Looking forward to Bunyan, hope to be there again this year. Wonderful job. Its REALLY GREAT to see you running the saw again, hope your shoulder hangs in there with you. I love it.
I love seeing you have fun in the woods. The saw work is great. The splitting work is great. I would love to get onto some of those fir tree rounds one day. Herein Australia I mainly burn river red gum and it's a bastard to split with its wavy grain. Good little workout. When this tree dropped it was a real joy to watch as it slapped the road. Looking forward to the splitting video in the next few weeks/months.
Even though that tree was dead what a magnificent specimen it was. Just to cut down a tree that old and that large would give me the thrill of a lifetime. Your a blessed man my friend. Enjoyed every second of this video 👍👍

Great video. One concern to be aware of especially cutting dead trees is always be aware the tops can come out and dead branches! They tento fall straight down and I have seen them break up a faller pretty. Good. Sawing and wedging can stress the tree enough to make this happen.
Last year I had a big Hemlock break in half and the top come right back at me . I’m always looking up , never bang wedges in rotten trees , they like to rain limbs down on you , just put a wedge in to keep it doom pinching your bar 👍🇨🇦
4:18 Yesterday I found an old railroad tie hanging around the house, ripped the sides off to get the dirt off and cut slots in it for my bar. It sits right behind my wheel wells and gives exactly enough space to hold my 660 in snuggly. Works pretty great.
This takes me back 50 years to the time my dad and my older brothers logged our old growth douglas fir stand on our ranch in Washington, up in the Cascades. Four and five foot at the stump, and 90 to 150 feet tall. My job was setting chokers so my oldest brother could skin 'em out with the Cat D6 down to the loading winch. We select cut 200 acres, then went back that winter, and thinned and pruned every thing left, collected the slash and took a bunch of it home as firewood for the next three years...lol Place looked like a park when we were done, and we could have cut again in 40 years or so, except for the big fire that crowned over the "wood lot" in '68 and killed 90% of it. Still, the thinning and pruning saved some of the trees.
Wow, what an awesome video!... it is extremely interesting to me to learn what is going on inside your head as you assess a tree and your surroundings before you even start power saw (chain saw🙃)... you ROCK young man!💪🪓🪵☮️🥰🌲
Man that saw sounds Awesome Billy, Excellent content as always Man Info is 2nd till none! And that pipe on that 372 is it first class . Big Love From Ireland
I hope ya going to show a lot more of that old girl she is one long legged sweetheart and ya need to do the old girl justice by doing her up right one beautiful tree I would of thought she was gone on the inside of her the way she looked so easy to get fooled 😱😱😱😱
Good Stuff Buckin, I had someone come remove a dead tree the other day and after they put the undercut in and were scribing a line around the tree and it broke and fell right where it needed to go but it was pretty crazy.
Good hearted, smart, proper, skilled man here. Buckin' Billyray is a real pro at what he does. i can tell by the way he takes his time and by his handling of these dangerous trees, he is a pro. I love watching your videos you have taught me a lot and you have showed countless people how to take their time and do this the right way, because doing it the wrong way, will most certainly cost their lives.
Nice one, lots of lumber in that one. I love my 390xp the best saw I ever for me. . I started out with a Mcculloch Mac 10/10, That old one cut lots of pine in ME.
