Throw them in the burn pile and find some smaller logs to cut. I'm not kidding. I was there and did that too many times. You look at those big behemoths and you think of all the heat you can get from them, and you will get a lot of heat out of them once you get them knocked down, but sit down and figure out what it's costing you to tackle them.
I used to dangle them from the loader bucket with a chain to split them till I finally figured out it was costing me just as much to try to outwit those big things as I would have spent for propane heat.

Then I figured I'd save money and downsize them with a maul and wedge but shoulder surgery put an end to that. $8000.00 went out of my pocket for that one. Now I just turn up the thermostat and the gas heater kicks in. I started splitting wood when I was just a little taller than the axe. It's good excersize, it keeps you warm on a cold winter day, but someday the body will talk back to you if you get too carried away. Jim
