MMMMMbig saws "Drool" I have walked my fair share of hikes to have carried a large saw. I would not have the heart to cut something that large down. Thats why i am in the maritimes. Nice vid. BIG WOOD!

I wondered when a logging/ wood cutting post would surface. Stihl vs. Husky is about as strong of an argument as Ford and Chevy. Seems like Huskys are bigger in the west, Stihl stronger in the east... who knows.

Personally... I own both, but as for large saws, Husky for sure. I just sold a 272XP on Ebay, and chose to keep my 61 (mostly for felling). Not a huge saw, but decent size and a quick cutter around here.
But... for the small saws I like my Stihls. My firewood saws are a 029 and a 031AV. Also have a couple Homelites an EZ and a 150. Also have a JD (Echo) 55V that I have probably used more than any of them.

Some guys hunt, or ride, because it gets them out in the woods and away from everything. Dont know why, but that is what I get out of cutting wood. Ill try to post up some pics.

Husky big in the west? Not too sure about that. Ax men uses stihls and most logging shows too. BUT I see hUSKY MAKES A GREAT HARD HAT. LOL JK.

Im not a logger but i do have a few saws McCulloch Pro Mac 60 and 4 Mini Macs The 60 is a beast and runs like a champ as for the mini macs they are very temperamental and run very hot

You kidding? Huskys are known for being a preferred saw in the west.
I used to watch ax men too, and noticed most were huskys. I did notice that last year, the browning crew was using mostly Stihls though. I dont like that show like I used to, mostly just watch it to see the Pihl crew fight .

[Tecate250]

Same. I hate nascar but love to watch the crashes. I see too many huskys breaking down or crash. hey husky guys sucks having to use your choke to shut the saw off. I like da big trees. Id cut a fort into one. One hell of a tree house.

I love the STIHL saw I borrow when (always) my McCullough is useless Steel crank in an aluminum housing with a useless chain adjustment.

Stihl or Husky all the way!!

[Yamada]

shindaiwa all the way. We have 4 of them:
488 for the small jobs.
575
577
and the 757C for the real mens.
When the time will come to change the 757C, we will probably buy the bigger Husqvarna. More cc and less weight.

[Tecate250]

Come on now. lets see real pics of your saw. Not the advertise pics. Just about to get our gear in the woods. Found out the skidder is not siezed.

[brapp]

[jeffatc250r]

Haha, no. No windows on this pig, its all business, free air. I was more like a hampster in a cage.
