I read a research paper years ago that concluded that no child under 6 should ever take tylenol due to the risk of ASD.
I don't really want to get into it again... but let's make it quick. I have hundreds of hours of study on the subject... first and foremost, and where common sense trumps science is that you simply cannot have an epidemic that is caused by genetics. Something changed and it wasn't the genes. Secondly, I AM quite familiar with the Danish study, which is flawed, though I don't recall the specifics. Thirdly one of my friends wrote a book called something like, autism, the genetic and environmental causes. He can speed read research papers. His doctorate is in analysis of data. He downloaded 3,000 papers, read 2,000, and cited 1,000 in his book. He concludes that there is a genetic component as some children are better able to handle and detox the toxic load, but if you take away the poison, the genetic component becomes irrelevant.I highly suggest digging deep into the research coming out of Australia and Netherlands. The vast majority of it comes down to genetics

Tree work and vaccines are all more complicated than that. Trying to boil everything down to simple statements and positions is bound to fail capturing the nuance in everything.

how big diameter at the base and at 120'. 8' gate at 120' would likely give you at least 1.5 degrees, maybe 2 degrees on either side. I can generally make that with a straight tree. I'd like to be cutting with a bar as long as the hinge to steer as she fell. A lot depends on risk vs reward (as in what kind of fence and what kind of $$$ is involved). I would likely give it a go... and yes hickory is one of the best holding woods around here... hemlock is also excllent. I would rate the two about equal in holding ability. The nice thing about doing your own jobs is that you can make the reward worth the risk in a way that an employee could never do.Never fell a hickory, looks like a good hinging stringy fiber tree.
So literally a reply to your answer is ‘no’ not without practice with the species.
But I can ask the same, would you drop a 150’ hemlock through a 8’ gate at 120’ from the stump? I know my answer to this too…. But rather hear yours first.
I wouldn't call that easy... with the twist up top and the width of the canopy.. but ya... easier than it looks.Yup all day long. Hickory hinges like a dream. Glad you didn't decide to gut it.
Easy trees like that make unwitting customers think your a hero eh
