There was definitely a face-cut ... maybe not deep enough .... that was 2yrs ago and I’ve progressed considerably... just trying to show the OP thru me experience ... HAD I CHAINED the tree in this instance I wood have had a much easier time ! Not afraid to show mistakes - that’s how ya learn -...
I don’t have as much experience as most on this forum so take with grain of salt ... on EAB ash trees (or any tree with head lean) we like to “choke” the trunk above the felling cut with chain or robust ratch straps ... if it starts to chair it will be prevented from splitting “up the center”
