My familly and I have enjoyed watching you all on ax men and are gonna miss you all the season!! not gonna be the same without you all and stump branch! stay safe & good luck!

Huge fan of Darrell and one of the major reasons for Ax Men was Gustafson Logging. I'll but up a link to your site from ours.

I never missed an episode of Axemen last year. It isn't going to be the same with out you guys. You made season 1 worth watching. Good Luck.

You guys kick ass, watching the show makes me remmber when I worked in the woods....

Love the show and wish ya'll was going to be on season 2. My dad and uncle worked in a logging camp in the late forties and early fifties. I loved to hear the stories they use to tell.
Thanks for a great show. I was really impressed with the character of your company's employee's. Good to see that the in this day-in-age.

I love to watch axe men,a lot of people,don,t know what real work is.Maybe after they watch your show they will understand.God bless you all. Larry Henson Bethel North Carolina

Hey there,love the show,I never miss it.I have a few friends here in Canada who are Loggers,and they are just a bunch of wonderful guys! My husband works for the Pipelines/Oil Companies here,so he's gone alot,sure wish they were on the History Channel as well.Be Safe out there.

You guys are great, love the show, like Stump Branch too. I cut trees in Ohio - our trees are twiggs compared to what you work with! Keep it up & stay safe from Cincinnati OH!

Ax Men Rocks !! Need a Faller?

If you all ever get the urge to cut some Appalachian Hardwoods, drop me a line. We work 5 crews right now, but we can make room for you. We've just locked up 1700 acres with your name all over it. It's hills to us, but should be flat land to you.

hey i love the show and cant wait from the new season Hope to work for you one day

u guys are awsome i would like a chance one day to work for u

Hi from skegness in england, your programe the axe men was just great,keep on logging, from the hill family.

Hey i just wanted to say you guys rock, the show is a great hit and i'm hoping for a 2nd season.I also live here in the great nw oregon, and my dad worked in the woods logging and built roads for about 10 yrs. I work in the construction ind, so i know how important it is to get the wood out of the woods to the mills.. I love the great nw oregon i hunt and fish, i enjoy just getting out in the woods away from all the hussle and bussle...
Anyway just wanted to keep up the great work....
Take care Rick from Salem

To Captain and Crew,
Re: The Challenge
As a carpenter with 22 years experience,I've seen a lot of craziness mixed in with the constant danger of spinning sawblades,heavy equipment and gritty,callous workmen. But watching you guys pull the stuck bull dozers out of the mud and up that hell hill, all 3 tractors CABLED TOGETHER, was absolutely insane!!! I was on the edge of my couch shouting at the screen,and stood up a let out a hurray when you got the last dozer up the hill.You guys got big cajones'!
Whether you win "the challenge" or not,you guys kick ass in my book! Sincerely,Don Van Cura Jr.

I just felt compelled to say hi. Though I am an enviro. science student, I also come from a logging family. My father's a logger/land-dvlpr who is still at it at 75yrs.old; my Granddad was a logger who started logging before chainsaws were used; and my Great-Grandfather-a logger also. I suspect there were others being of Scandinavian descent. In fact, I too, have set a few chokers on small cat/skidder jobs. I wanted to learn more, but I guess my dad wanted to protect his little girl. I appreciate the hard work and the risks taken by woodsmen (& woodswomen). I love the sights and smells on the job sites. There's nothing like the smell of fresh churned forest dirt! I miss it terribly. Great to see the show; it's quite stimulating. And though I want people to have more concern about our environment and encourage sustainable logging practices, I also enjoy wood products, including those we use in the bthrm! :) Please tell Tim hi; he's a good guy. Good luck and stay safe!

hey guys I loved the show this year I'm realy exited for a second season , good luck this year!!

Hey fellows!
Was looking on a loggingprogram from Oregon, showing
your company at full work. Here i Sweden we also have had suvered storm (huricans) and we lost lot of spruce forest.
What suprice me, is your poor safety device, as protectiv helmet with hearingaid and protectiv-screen(net).Also we use speciell protectiv clothing as boots, gloves and truser.
I was not able to see on the movie, if you were using those
things.
I have some forest her in souther part of Sweden, mostly beech trees. I am also fruitgrower, and were i the early -60 a couple of year at Three Fruit Experment station in Wenatchee Wash.

With best regards

Sven G Almer

Look at; www.nordanvik.se

watching the show " ax men ", the marathon was on last night, you guys have a interesting company.

.....your buncher....wow....
buy a decent head and maybe you guys will actually put out more wood with a decent operator, no wonder he cannot handle wood.

overall, not bad but tell them boys to stop whining constantly.

we are sick of the whining in canada

Hey u guys hows it going. Hoping for a second season! I am a cutter for little river tree removal and i run the new wood processor we just got but i am lovin life and i hope u guys keep up the work even through these bad time

Hi guys! You rock. My grandfather, father, uncles and cousins all worked out in the bush as loggers in B.C and at home here in Alberta, Canada. I was very young when they were logging and trucking so I don't really remember much. However, watching your show gives me a good idea of what they went through. I'm a carpenter/cabinetmaker(2 years ago I used over 5000BF of Alder on cabinets and doors) and I still live out in the country. I only wish some of the city slickers will watch your show so they'll really see where lumber comes from(and I don't mean the Home Depot). Watching Ax Men has given me a whole new appreciation of the work and effort needed to get the lumber to the mill. Thanks and keep up the great work. Let's hope for a second season. Good luck.

I'm currently watching an episode of Axemen on the History channel and was quite intrigued by the company name. My great grandfather August(Gust) Gustafson was a logger years ago in Oregon. His family then moved to Imperial, Saskatchewan (Canada) to take up grain farming on the prairie. I'm curious if there could be any common links in our family trees. Do you know much about the history of your family?

Sincerely,
Dawn Ewert

Hi guys, i spent 27 years in timber in the scottish borders, got out in 2002, tree harvesters took over, i miss it drastically, its tremendous to watch you on tv over here in scotland, keep knocking them over. Alan R Currie. Langholm Dumfriesshire.

This is what you call "reality T.V " & it's about Time. When I first saw your show last week,it brought back fond memories of when I used to cut White Pine Out of Thunder Bay,ON,Canada, mind you we didnt use Yarders or Yoders but what fun it was to see those beasts fall & then choke em up. Hats of to u guys. This show is going to be a hit, I just love it.

hey guys
i think u have some nice equiment and i like how u run ur company and i wish u guyes the best of luck.

Hi Guys
Axe Men is the best programme on UK TV at present wouldnt miss wednesday or friday night for anything.
Reminds me when i helped my dad cut all those dead Elm trees down back in the early 1970s, and the experiences i had with a Stihl chainsaw and alloy wedges from the age of about 12.
Keep up the good work!

Hi there from the UK
My son and I love watching you on Axe Men !
You are great !
You are our favourite crew ! You are all gorgeous guys. Please come to the UK anytime !!!
Did you ever find the rope that someone stole ? We watched that last night.
Love to all.
Helen and Toby Wood xxxx

After hearing about your family and company from my father in N. J. just was curious to see if you might be a part of the Gustafson family from Colorado the older generation originally from Gold Hill, Colorado and then Boulder, Colorado and now spread over a few states.

John and Naomi Gustafson

See sharp or be flat right? Lets hope the viewing public never has to hear seven long and two short getting pumped out of a bug. Stay safe and sometime I'll get around to watching more than 20 min of the show.

robt.

We really enjoyed the show and especially liked seeing you boys as adult men. My how time flies. Scott is 42 and Jill is 39. They watched the show also along with our grandkids. Tell us about your families. We've been in Springfield since 1979. Chuck retired in 93 and we are both healthy. Good Luck and hope to hear from you.
