Ed,

 

The Coon Branch Pine is 14'10" cbh, not 15'10". Sorry for the typo so the F
value is .399.

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 consistent with Bobs observation:   "single-trunk old-growth
specimens are proving to have ... an F value as high as 0.35 or even 0.37".
