Be careful of limbs falling from above and monitor your footing. • If the log has support on one end, cut 1/3 the diameter from below the log (known as underbucking). • If the log has support on the two ends, cut 1/3 the diameter from the top. Complete the cut by underbucking the lower 2/3 of the log to touch the first cut. To limb a tree 1. Use larger limbs to hold the log off the ground. 2.
