Will, That is simple calculation. The Coon Branch Pine is 148.8 x 15' 10" and 1035 ft3 volume. That girth is equal to approximately 2.52 feet radius. therefore F = 1035 / (148.8)(pi)(2.52)(2.52) = 1035 / 2968.62 = 0.349 This is relatively consistent with Bobs observation: " For forest-grown pines in the age-class of 150 years or more, the F factor will commonly be between 0.38 and 0.44. Stocky old-growth outlier pines may achieve a factor between 0.45 and 0.47." Ed Frank "Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both. " Robert Frost (1874-1963).
