Yeah but that’s not split. And hours worth of cutting with a decent saw. Throw it in the truck and deliver.

It's not from a wood cutting company. Just a whiskey drinking Cowboy that offered to help us out when I asked him if he knew someone in the area that would cut and deliver firewood. His buddy popped off and said, "I can get you a cord for $200" and Bubba the Cowboy said, "shut up man, I'll get them some firewood myself", so i said,"you deliver us a cord of wood way the hell out here, I'll gladly give you $200" Not to mention when we were there Thanksgiving, he brought us probably 20 logs for free. Seems like a good deal.
I just turned it on . I was looking bird dogs in the butt this morning. ![[Linked Image]](http://i.imgur.com/AvUPi.gif)

You should get him to keep your feeder full down in the canyon. I have an old Galvanized Sweeney Feeder going down there with a feedpen this summer (needs timer). He'll help me keep it full. Good guy and he really likes us. Feels bad that theres no quail so he has been feeding a spot for us the past few weeks so we can shoot some hogs this weekend. Sounds like the kind of guy you want to have around. Don’t think I’d even bring it up. Let’s just say he is light by 25%... Personally, I don’t think $50 worth of wood is worth making things uncomfortable over. Not when he’s helping you out in other ways too

That's something less than a cord. You were sold a "face" cord or "rick" or whatever BS term they want to give their "cord". If you really care, stack it up neatly. A proper cord is 128 cubic feet regardless of the dimensions. GUTIT is your man for a proper cord of split, quality, seasoned wood. He's probably a bit of a drive for you (assuming the Cedar Creek Lake listed in your profile).

Stack it to find out. My bet is that it is a face cord or close to it. What most people refer to as a cord is really a face cord. 4' tall x 8' long x however long the logs are. I can not ever recall wood sold as a cord actually coming as a full 4x4x8 cord. It is usually just a face cord.

That looks like what would fit in a pickup bed,
Maybe he’s coming back with another load.

I am assuming that’s a 20 ft container
4x4x8 is a cord
So look at it like that, I think it’s close

A lot to the THF gang. That pile is a little short, but damn fair for the delivery and good relationships at $200.00.

The real question is "Would you cut it for that"? I would consider that a face cord...not a full cord but considered it was delivered you got your moneys worth. Certainly not worth losing sleep over Can't really tell from the photo but some of it looks green....that would bother me.

From here it looks like a $100-$150 worth of wood and $300 worth in labor, mesquite isn't near as friendly cutting like tame oak.
