Default Re: Angled back cut| backcut| tree felling

I started useing it after having a rotten tree set back and shoot over backwards at me[thank god it was in the middle of the woods].i never had a problem lining up the cuts and when i use it aloft I make two opposing diagnols to the under cut to get a wide deep notch then I finish with an angled back cut at the same angle and cut it to about 3/8s of an inch for a hinge.if it would try and set back it"ll slide down into the rigging or ground however your doing it.in effect it works similar to a slice cut.I don't use it exclusivly only when the need arises.
