I agree bucking up is hard work I use to work in cedar mill were we bought tree length logs and we would cut the rot and making sure we can get what we needed out of them.so i understand what ya saying. Ya guys do good work.:) ;]
What an amazing business you’re in, it’s an art like every trade. I’m a tile contractor in NJ but purchased acreage in Southern Missouri. The property has loads of trees including really old Walnuts. Wanted to ask you at what point should I think about logging these really old gigantic trees? I’m guessing at some point trees start going down hill. The timber is magnificent so don’t want to cut if there’s decades left in em. Impressed with your company when we’re ready we’ll get in touch. Thanks for your videos.
Hey, Alan. Although the old trees are beautiful and make the property very picturesque, when they hit a certain age/size they do start to decline in their life cycle. (You can look back to a couple of our videos from a few weeks ago to see great examples) Naturally when performing a timber harvest you want to be very selective, especially if you have several residual trees growing in your timber stand. The best thing to do is to walk your property with a professional logging company (preferably us or one of the other great companies in Southwest Missouri) and get and idea of what you have and express what you are looking to achieve from a potential harvest. It's always best that everyone is on the same page and can work together to reach the end results thag you're looking for while ensuring you still have healthy, productive timber stand. Thank you very much for watching out channel!
Turner Logging, LLC Great idea man. I won’t be back in Ava for a couple weeks but I will look you up and maybe make an appointment to walk the property with you this spring. I don’t want a clear cut but like to start with 40-50 acres and thin the woods a bit. We’ve got a real diverse choice of mature timber, pine, oak, walnut, not much cedar except a grove up past the ridge. Just happened on your channel and enjoy your work man. Thanks again and talk soon.
No sir, 99% of the time we have then bucked and ready to load out. The only time we'll leave anything long is if it's a questionable multiple cut veneer log, then they can determine if they want to cut it or not, or what lengths they want it cut into. Thank you for watching!
For what we do it's a little faster, especially when scaling logs an measuring the diameters of every cut. It's multipurpose I guess you could say. Thank you for watching, Bryan!
Turner Logging, LLC it's kinda interesting to see so many 8' logs. Over here on the west coast it's mostly long logs 40' down to 12' and upwards of 70' on power poles
Yea most of our logs are cut into 8s, 9s, 10s, 12s, then multiples on the high grade veener. Everything we cut is mainly furniture and tie grade material. Logging is really so diverse all over the country, it's truly amazing!
You had plenty of the why … it would’ve been much nicer to hear what he was thinking. At least following him filming would’ve been better. I know a lot of old guys aren’t into that, and even if he didn’t want to explain it it would’ve been great to be up close and watch him pick the spot. Video wise I mean. I don’t mean to be critical. I was just hoping for more and just happened onto your channel. You’re right about this being a critical move in Loggging. And helping everyone out is the right thing to do keep them coming!
+Turner Logging, LLC Only thing we cut 9 foot are tie logs then saw logs start at 10 foot but even rough ties bring more than smooth straight 8 foot logs.
Why do you drop the trees on the bare ground? Asking for a dull chain! Drop the trees on small cross logs. Only Amish do what you do, but they use horses. Senseless! ,

Looks like a busy day shuffling timber and grading
It's by far the worst part of the job! Thank you for watching!
Do u ever leave em long and let buyer mark them how they want.

hello there my friend.glad to see pa at work.be safe.
Thank you for watching, Joe!
You guys do things completely different than us mid mo loggers...north of the missouri river loggers i should say (where the good timber is)
We cut timber north of the river and conduct business and operate the same way. Thank you for watching!
Do you have more than one buyer come and look at all your logs?
What is the benefit of using that scaling stick over a log tape?

Our saw mills actually pay less for 8 foot logs no matter how good of oak or poplar it is.
Our markets are the same as well, 9ft and longer logs will always bring more. (As long as the logs are clean) thank you for watching!
