    Can't tell buy looking, but it was lightning struck bout 3 weeks ago. The main trunk for 15 or feet and all the top were normal. About 10 feet in the middle was hard as hammered whale @!&$. Funny what lightning does.

    It was a nice tree. Had a real weird lean going, and I had to keep it off some fruit tress that you can't see in the picture. Went right where I wanted it.

    Thanks. I let him cut with it so he will maybe get his 680 ported. He's all smiles and usually gives me the finger when he runs it.

    I'll just add this here. We split about 2 ricks (sorry 2 ricks) before it started raining. 20231015_130327.jpg
