Aug 4, 2022 #10 dogtown Well-Known Member Joined Feb 3, 2006 Messages 140 Location woods BSK Here is a side view. What is the definition of a second beam vs. kicker? Second pedicle? Attachments I__00103.JPG 350.2 KB · Views: 96

I think that kicker qualifies as a second right main beam.

Can't have one with an unfair advantage. Looks like an eye gouger to me.

Sep 13, 2022 #18 dogtown Well-Known Member Joined Feb 3, 2006 Messages 140 Location woods I am trying to negotiate with my larger property holding neighbors to let him grow. I hope it works. He is only a hundred yards from the property boundary where that pic was taken.
