More oak. Gave the 620 some exercise in the big trunk. Rolled up the ramp onto the truck and that was still a heck of a workout. I was reminded I'm 63 and not 36. :D

    Pulled the truck in the garage at home and will wrestle them off tomorrow evening.
    Had to split a few pieces off the last big boy to fit it on.

    I was surprised that I cut all that with one tank of fuel in the 620.

    Yep! The older I get them more I break em down. Only get one back, better take care of it.
    I see some crotchy rounds that would fight a maul or sledge and wedge. Those get full noodle treatment before lifting. Heavy suns a beaches.

    I don't do much noodling, but if I can't use the ramp or I get into some big ones when I don't have the ramp with me I usually always have the monster maul with me.
