Even though the brand new 572 beat a 20 year old 372, you can't beat a 372 for an all around saw, and a 395 for a bigger saw. Husqvarna 372 XP best saw ever made.
As an all round general purpose falling saw u might be right. But in big timber, a short bared,,like I run mine, I think the 395 xp is the finest felling saw ever made
Great video. Have cut trees with chainsaws and have cut one with a crosscut saw. Them guys that did it with a crosscut had to be something else to do that all day long. I have never cut trees for a living just around the house. Cut the one with the crosscut with my mother in law on the other end of the saw. She was the only other one there that knew how to make it work. Stay safe and God bless you'll.
As a southernSon who now lives in the Midwest, your accent and your way of speaking makes me smile ear to ear and cheer for you! Good on ya! All the best and great success to you sir
Once you get start getting your saws woods ported you will wonder why you never did it sooner. No down sides, just WAY more power. My 550XP autotune saws gained a ton of power just from putting "proper" gutted mufflers on them.
They all cut. Well. All depends how much $ you want to spend. For a saw to cut a few seconds faster. I am sure you could sharpen that chain. To the point that the saw would have a tough time.
One is brand new and one is 18 years old. Is there a significant technicalogical improvement over the years? What is the difference in cost? What is the difference in maintenance? Do you prefer the operation of one over the other? Since you already own the 372xp, would you "upgrade" to the 572xp if you had to spend your own money? Great video. As ever, you pay attention to the details and make them great to watch.
The 572 is an evolution of the 372 so it's about 200-300 more. Is it more dependable and easy to work on,no way to tell too new. Can't even, get it state side yet. The old 372 pre auto tune is nice and reliable and the average person can work on it without bringing it to the shop.
Is it really worth switching? I might get my money back? I'm just cutting firewood for myself. 10 cord for me. I will sell a little if one begs me. I gonna get a 572.
I got 34 sec. on the 372 and 29 sec. on 572. Not bad for a 20 year old saw! But I may be bias😏. I’m a 372 xp man. They’re the best saws I’ve ever had in my hands. Great video, thank you sir.

I love my 372xp, but am really looking forward to the 500i that Stihl is coming ot with, I'm thinking that'll be my mid size saw replacement when the time comes... I'm not brand loyal.
I run a newer 576 and an older modded 372. The 576 feels lighter (never weighed them) and like it’s got a bit more snort. I just hope the 576 holds up as strong as my trusty old 372 has. I’m hoping Husky continues to develop new saws, particularly a 5 series version of the 395. I would be first in line.
Got asked to get some saws running for a tree company once purposely put chains on backwards just as a test to see if people pay attention and heard a guy tried to cut with one wouldnt cut so tried to sharpen the bachside of the chain
Great video tim I think the 572 was a little bit better than the 372 but it was close. Thank you for sharing this with us. I own Stihl saws but I am think about looking at the 572 it seems to be a good one
Good stuff man, had a great big what we call here in VA a ironwood tree blow down from neighbors yard into my yard in October of last year when Michael came thru here, tree was 40" at stump, limbed it with a Stihl pole saw, cut limbs with a echo 280e large limbs with a Stihl 391 and trunk with Stihl 660 with 28" bar, this was alot of work for an old man. Really enjoy your videos and can relate to what you do. Keep up the great work. 👍
I'm a Husky guy, however, all the 4 series saws are to be avoided, absolute crap. Unless you're pro, see if you can grab a good used 350 or 365. The 365 will run you more money but it's an ANIMAL of a saw. I haven't tried any of the 5 series saws, they look to be great but when they fail they'll be too technical for most non pros to fix, and they're expensive. Any good used 3 series is where it's at.

I have a 372 xp I have two bars for it a 24 inch and a 28 inch. With a new or sharp chain it can really get the job done . Cut many large hard woods with it hickory , white oak, red oak here in central Ky. Always have to refuel after felling and bucking a large tree and sometimes before. Great saw..

That´s one of the better ways to end up with a lot of sawdust in your garage...
my father told me he cut 100 trees a day both saws sound dull, he told me a brand new chain is dull to begin with😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The 572 will get better as it breaks in
I have never really liked these types of comparisons. Old saw vs new saw, literally. To many variables. U should probably at least show a compression check before. The 372 could be tired for all anybody knows.
I agree
Yeah thats true! That is an OLD 372 also with the decompression valve on the side rather than the newer model on top
The old 372 isn't tired, the new 572 is just that badass.
Agree. I have aright new 372 well under a 100hrs and a 20 yr old 385 and the 372 being smaller still outdoes it likely cause of wear
The whole test is bs
Why did you adjust the chain tensioner again after using an impact driver on the bar nuts?... Pre game superstition?
I cant believe he didn't raise the tip of the bar when tightening the bar.
All I did was take the paint off
I almost never do. I tend to do a lot of up cutting so it pulls it down.
The 572 sounds a lot like a MS 462. I’m honestly torn between the MS 462 & 372xp. I can’t really decide. 🙇🏻♂️
Thanks Tim that new saw is a wood eater.
Thanks for the head to head shootout! Love the tigercat bite marks.
What chain ?
That sure is a snazzy bicycle helmet!
always good, right on, George.
nothing compares with 372 ...still the best saw ever made. 572 new upgrades,new materials,new carb ...every day 372 for me
Have you had a chance to run a 572?
I prefer the 371/2 non xtorq's as well
I have the 550mark2 with a nicely done muffler mod and its a screamer. Hopefully i can get the 572 next . Best saws everade in my opinion
The dry wood chips make good smoke for BBQ cooking. Making Jerky, smoked queso,......good stuff
What are those hardhats worth never even seen one on the shelf in out cheap ass husky dealer can't keep anything in Stock and the don't know there product.
How many of you have used an impact on the nuts for tensioning lol. 😂 he's probably put a chain on backwards before.
great video Tim , seems like the 572xp pulls a little faster than the 372xp be safe and have a blessed day !
That 572 never gives up, i've yet to see him bog it down, even in that hickory!

Interesting way to “warm up” a saw 😬
All that trigger squeezing was making me cringe too!
Kinda asking for a cold seizer... in law warms his the same way

Thx for video. My 372 was stolen last week made me sick.
Love the 572xp! Also that helmet is sweet man!!

And boy have they come up with one in the 592XP. However the 395 is still wonderful and I prefer it in certain situations. I use both
They both cut the same and the old one is a pound lighter

Thank you Matt.

Not sure what your grind on your chain is like. But it looks like you are pushing on your saw. The chain should be pulling it's own through the wood.
