As a forester the best advice I can give somebody in other regions is ask around a find a reputable and trustworthy forester in your area. Have him come in and write a management plan for the tract. Just cutting all the big trees is terrible management for most species and will result in lower yields down the road and lower value at selling time. Having a management plan written and the marketed timber put out for bid insures that you will receive the best price.
Have the forester handle all the ground work and make sure he has a good contract for the logger to sign. That way you can fall back on it in the event that the logger doesn't leave the woods the way you want it.
Now i will say that hopefully the "high" prices that everybody keeps talking about don't return as they were over inflated and not sustainable.
Any more questions just ask I enjoy talking forestry and hate seeing landowners with a sour taste in their mouth about logging.
