DVD: Logging With Horses, Oxen & Mules – a Rural Heritage video
Professional logger Brandt Ainsworth discusses safety gear, proper felling techniques, logging horse harness, log carts in a variety of styles, ground skidding, scaling, and decking saw logs. Brandt has been working with his father in the woods since he was big enough to walk behind a team of horses. By the age of 16 he had his own firewood business. In 1996 at the age of 20 he struck out on his own as Brandt Ainsworth Logging. A full-time logger, he handles long-term hardwood management for several private woodlot owners. He practices worst-first selective harvesting using teams he raised and trained himself and featured in this video – a pair of Percheron draft horses and a yoke of Holstein-Limousin oxen featured in this DVD.
