Collecting An Oak
I have been reading the previous thread by Carl about stealing tree's. I am wanting to collect an oak that I have had my eye on for about year. It is sitting in a ditch on the side of a hill, in the country.I know the people who live right there across the road. I used to live with the people and dont think that they would miss the tree in the ditch across the road. I aslo know the guy who owns the hay field that the tree sits next to in a ditch. I will get permission from him before I even attempt to dig this tree. The tree is an amazing yamadori tree. The trunk has a s curve that flows with great taper. The tree has been mowed over by the township folk for as long as it has been there. The trunk is probaly about an inch across(estimate). I have no experiance witht this species and are hoping for its survival when I collect it .
