Question

What equipment are the men using to chop down the tree in throwing a tree by Thomas Hardy ?

Answer 1

$\huge\mathtt\orange{Answer:}$

To throw a tree is to fell a tree, bring it to the ground. From the very title of the poem, Hardy uses the technical words and details entailed in the expertise and skill involved in the craft of tree-felling. Thus the boles are the tree trunks, and the men carry heavy-headed axes and a two-handled saw to the task.
