Chummer - I support the war on beech, but I would ask you at least consider hinging the smaller ones. They hold their leaves really late and thus make great screen trees for hinge cuts. They also make great stand trees as the leaves help break up your outline while on stand. The large ones - I agree cut'em, cut'em all! Beech are very shade tolerant and create a lot of shade as well. So does hard maple - but hard maple can make you some money!
Glad to hear your not cutting everything over 14" - that just seemed like an easy way out for someone that wasn't interested in the health of the timber.
We are talking American Beech - correct?
