Been there done that. Ive made some not so pretty stumps by not having the right saw or bar length to take it down. On the ground safely and youre in one piece so all is well.
Nephew's buddy brought a big dog over and my nephew made the felling cut. We cut up most of the tree with the Makita and an echo CS-310. Tomorrow we will finish up the main trunks.
When I say we need to finish the main "trunks" its actually only the area circled as it spilt in 1/2 to the stump from that crotch. It was a rotten tree in the center as can be seen in the above pics.
