Thanks for the advice guys. Moving the blind is harder than you think. It ain’t heavy but it’s high.
The main thing I was worried about was the dead limbs falling off when I notch it. I didn’t know if there was a technique to use to avoid that risk.
I’m gonna put a rope up high with a fishing pole cast, notch it, and pull it over with the tractor. Dont put the rope high. Put it low and pull it slow. But what do i know, ive only cut a couple thousand of them. Limbs are not likely to fall off. Its possible but not likely. The bottom of the tree still has good wood in it. The top is rot, youll see that when it hits the ground. The real danger is the top breaking out, that happens when the tree moves fast. If youre pushing the tree with the tractor bucket, whoever is cutting is standing under the bucket. When its time to push the tree over, the cutter walks away first. Then the tractor eases the tree over. Low like 20’ or low like 6’?
