- Oh how I hate RED ROT! Today we are logging with the draft horses and I am sharing a bit about red rot in trees. We also have some college students from Paul Smith's College coming in today also and I am teaching them a bit about horse logging.
Watch our videos to learn about draft horses- horse logging, horse farming, and horse training! Jim uses Belgian, Percheron, and Suffolk horses to do work on the farm and in the woods. He teaches about harnesses, horse-drawn logging and farming equipment, horse feeding and maintenance, and voice commands for horses. New videos uploaded every week. Keep watching to see how Jim trains his new Suffolk Punch colts as he has trained his full-grown teams!

Hi Jim!!😀😀
You are the typical good logger. You don't give yourself enough credit. I've logged all my life a lot like you. When I watch you I see a 9.5 classification. Only because I feel there are no 10 ' s out there. There is always room to learn more right up to the day you die.
Take care my friend!!😀😀💚💚

Thanks Jim, so nice to meet some of your friends. Thanks for letting us hang out with you.
The tree with red rot could be a lesson example for the students. Baron and Bill sure step briskly. Amazing that Baron has progressed so rapidly that he can be used in the woods with Bill.
I'm at best a one and I'm 60 years old and been cutting would since my teens! Lol. Son was cutting some maples this weekend and all were hollow, he should have had chaps on, he nicked his leg. I like running my saw blades somewhat tight so the chain clutch stops faster. Great video as always! Take care and God bless!
Jim and Brenda
I have mentioned this before but your channel brings such blessings to more than you can imagine. There are many like myself that had/have dreams of doing what you are doing. We know that those dreams will never happen but we can enjoy what you do and be blessed. Thanks for taking the time and energy to bless so many people
It's so nice meeting the students, Olivia did an excellent job with the B team! Love all of your videos!!
So great you're teaching sustainable logging! I'm a college professor in Canada, and love horses, and have followed for a long time. I didn't realize you now have six working horses!
Jim I love to see the Bill and Baron as good boys and did well with Olivia. Take care and God Bless you all.
Great job working with draft horses and teaching students in the woods the same way we did years ago at PSC
Jim Thank you for that great day Last Friday while giving you a new hard helmet and pictures from the horses from years ago With my great Dad ay PSC Hope they liked the apples and wear your new hard helmet Stay safe Miss the days not being in the woods with horses
An honor to meet you Ed . 😊😊😊
@chips4974 Thank you Have been around horse logging at 8 years old We have had many draft horses in my life With my Dad at PSC Leo Prince Queen Belle Midnite Star Lady Mini Maude and many more Miss not able to be in the woods everyday
Well Ed I too have a logging history . No horses . I guess wood chips and pine forests get in our soul . Happy trails to you my friend .😊😊😊
Hey Jim When will be your last day of your logging horse job In PSC
Olivia did really a good job . Bill and Baron have tremendous power.❤
Baron is really becoming a very valuable team member.
Nice job Jim on teaching your young students horse logging. Their our future if you want horse logging to continue by training them on how it's done. God bless and keep safe.
Love your videos and enjoy watching. Jim working the horses and working with logging
Thanks Jim, another great video
Thanks Jim for explaining everything
Hey Jim , Red Rot is the scurge of the lumber business . Such a waste . Thank you for taking us along on your log job at Paul Smith College. Harvesting 4200 board feet of lumber was a pretty good dat. Especially with you working along with 4 students. Olivia who had her first drive behind Bill and Baron skidding out the log to the landing is something that will be in her memory for a long time.
Good to see you and the B Team up at PSC doing some logging. I enjoyed hearing the gentleman's (forgot his name) stories that used to log there with his dad. As he said it brought back lots of memories, so that was a good thing! What a pity the red rot nearly ruined the first huge tree. Can red rot happen to all trees, or is it primarily pines it happens to?
Good advice for blankets on horses. I'm a believer like you. Enjoy all the videos!!!
Bonjour Jim. Can you use the red rot tree for firewood? What causes red rot? Does it spread from tree to tree?
Always love your work jim, wanna learn about horses and farming if I ever get a chance I wanna meet you and learn from you... Love from India
Jim, I am glad you are in good physical shape. It looked like you went on a wild ride w/ your cart. I am glad you could hang on. About red rot, will that be called firewood.
Always good to see a new working Hoses with Jim video pop up......
One of your best demo videos! I really enjoyed it and thanks for sharing this! 💯
That was sweet of ED to stop by and give you the picture s great video
How did you ever live without your bigger trailer!
Not surprised you decided to chuck the 562. I got one of the first models that came out before a lot of modifications were made. Hardest saw to start I have and don't even ask it to start when it is hot. That saw is why I own an Echo 620, about the same power range but no auto tune carb to deal with .
I know Tom, great guy and looks out for our trees in Westhampton.
Can you elaborate sometime about red rot? What it is, it’s cause, does it eventually kill the tree, is the tree a total loss or can it be used for pulp wood or fire wood?
Awesome video.
🤔big chips sharper saw when you switched saws noticed it in video 🤭👍 I’m 21/2 wood cutter, like students college forester touch , red rot 🫣😝 such a waste of lumber Jim 👍👋
Wow. seems like such a waste to let the tree with wood rot just stay and rot. Is there a way to woodchipper the portion with rot down to mulch and wood chips so it could be used for trails and gardens? Or is the disease such that it would spread in the soil.? Love the logging videos as I learn quite a bit.
I learn so much about trees and wood from you! Thank you!❤
I have never logged ,just enough to billed fence ,we worked ground, I sure enjoy watching a teamster whose horses keep gaining confidence in themself as well as the teamster day after day. thanks for great showing.
I can see why that condition is so bad. I now hate RED ROT too! Nice to see and meet old friends. Loved seeing the smooth, quiet pull through the woods. More of that Jim
Really enjoy your professional and experience to see how and why you do your work
Hi,
Please excuse my ignorance regarding logging - this may seem a silly question. You where talking about red rot and I wondered whether trees affected with it, if left in the forest, infect other trees?
🌟Jim🌟 You totally amaze me…. You are one awesome person and logger! You certainly know what you are doing! You and your horses make a spectacular team. You have certainly trained them well I’m very impressed! I give you, your team a 5 STAR 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 rating with your awesome work and dedication to your logging business and lumber mill work! Thank you and your wife so much for sharing your awesome videos! Blessings be with you and your wonderful family!
excellent...😊
Jim needs to get a ported 572 from Ripsaw ....
Jim;
Does red rot burn, or is that like trying to burn rotten wood?
Hi Jim with the log having red rot could it be used for fire wood I made wrong let me know what u think thanks
I could tell it wasn't cutting good! We use to take the rakers down, sometimes a little to far, and the saw would try to pull you thru the tree!
lov from South Alabama.
Hi enjoy your videos very much Appreciate you sharing your life and your family with us. You are an amazing person Make us realize what work really is.
so what is red rot? Is it a fungus? Thanks Jack Andrus.
Hi Jim. Have been watching you and Brenda since about the time Buck died. Now my husband is hooked and he is wondering why you separate the horses when traveling
as a disabled person I truly envy your lifestyle
Jim, I was wondering if you could estimate how much a Pine Tree can grow a year under normal weather conditions? Thank you and always enjoy your videos.
I think you need another notch at the bottom of your chainsaw scale below “homeowner” for people like me who have never held one of those beasts in their hands! 😅 I’d rate myself a zero for sure. Maybe -1.
I bet Brenda let out a gasp at minute 24!
Hello, I enjoyed another logging video. I’m wondering with the red rot logs if any boards would be salvageable from around the rot since it is mostly in the middle of the log? With your sawmill would it be worth cutting what you could from the log and then using the rest in your wood burner? Thank you for another great video!
If I understand your comment, apparently the Red Rot renders a log even unfit for firewood...seems like leaving that part of a tree in the woods to rot might perpetuate the spread of Red Rod ?
I have a question: how do you teach the horses left and right? I’d love to see a training video :)
wow was wondering when a female was going to show up for a student lol way to go young lady im sure you will learn more as time goes by good luck young lady
Did the Paul Smith team ever give an explanation into red rot - how to prevent it or test standing trees for it?
Years ago while my Dad GJH Hoyt was a teacher there From 1954 to 1985 He talked to his students about kind of tree care to keep away anything that will hurt a tree To remove for lumber
I think I missed my calling in life.
Love my 562…wondering if you have a preference on bar length? Have been thinking about a 572, but I don’t normally do logs so big on a regular basis. God bless.

What is disease that causes red rot?
At least you don't have pine beetles like they do out north west.
Hi Jim, when I was cutting in the woods every day, I did feel a new chain needed to be sharpened. My sharpening skills are not the same now. A new chain seems pretty sharp now.
Just wondering how dangerous it is for you if you guys get in a hornets nest? Do the horses freak out like humans and run like heck to get away? Or hopefully they stay calm.
Don’t you use the “rotting” log for firewood Jim?
Hij Jim eerste groetjes Jan 1👍🇧🇪
Jim that logs with red rot, can't you take them out and still use them for fire wood, hate to see them go to waste?
Can the red rot logs be used for fire wood or is it toxic or something?
with all the nonsense going on in our country it does my heart good to see a good God fearing couple living off the land one question though do the horses understand the word careful when you say it
👍🏽👍🏽
You leave the tree to rot is it not worth anything for fire wood ?
I've heard of those things kicking back and cutting guys' thighs open.
What would you do without your capable chain saw Jim?😢😅😊
Well Norma Our pioneer loggers used double bites axes and crosscut saw and succeeded in devastated our pine forests in a hundred tears . But yes Jim loves his sharp Husqvarna. 😊😊😊
I'm a (1)! How do you get safely down a leaner caught in another tree--no horses or tractor.
A come along or a portable battery or gas winch ,anchored to another tree . Jim has felled other trees into hung up tree . Or if firewood buck up leaner . Tree size is important and it's use . Leave it for 2 days maybe wind and gravity will bring it down . These are some suggestions , but it's a nasty problem . We do know one thing , never get under leaner and cut . We humans can't move fast enough . Some people suggest fence posting a leaner . Bad idea a wheel chair or grave site could be your future . 😊😊😊
I still get nervous whenever you unload the horses from the trailer.
When you ask the student their skill level, you should tell them you consider yourself a 6-7, then they might come up with a more realistic number.
are you gonna let Bill stay with Lady when she goves birth again in pen.?
also a heap of hay in the center to lay on? cant wait.😊
Pls..what causes Red Rot...
Ask Google 😊
why don't you put a step on that trailer to make it easier for the horses to get out
Nobody puts steps on horse trailers. That would cause them to stumble actually. Some small trailers have ramps on them for the smaller saddle horses to go down but many of them also step down like these do. These are big horses. They can jump higher than the step up or down if needed. They don't have any trouble getting on and off these trailers. They see where they're going and then just step off.
@@suzanneyoung8011 i meant ramps .but you must be the expert.i'm just a horse lover
I myself have Belgian’s also and the one time I use the trailer with ramps my boys jumped over the ramp up into the trailer kind of dented the floor little bit with all that weight lifted ground. My horses having no trouble to step up into a trailer 18 to 20 inches off the ground. But it was a good question.
Jim, you are selling yourself short on skill. You handle a chainsaw like it was an extension of your arms -- minimum 9 - 9.5 on skill!!
i can't see your videos any more , are you using a phone?
Why would you let the TWO pieces of wood with RED ROT stay in the woods & ROT when it is Perfect firewood??
Not many people burn pine in their fireplace due to the extreme creosote and soot buildup in their chimneys. It is a fire hazard.
Perfect firewood ? Not Pine with red rot !!
you must be licensed to be an auctioneer.
The log with red rot has zero value, not even good enough for fire wood?
Can't believe you're so brazen to corrupt a young lady on camera. 😂
