There is no requirement to start Woodcutting. One should always use the best Axe available for purchase in the Shop.

Also available in the Shop is

Boosters

  • The Firemaking Skillcape provides an additional 5% experience to all skills.
  • The Pyro pet provides an additional 1% experience to all skills.
  • The Woodcutting Skillcape reduces base woodcutting interval by 15%.
  • The Bird Nest Potion provides an increased chance for bird nests while chopping logs. Nests can be sold to buy Axe upgrades or

Ensuring you have the most up to date Axes available to your level in the shop will also ensure the fastest experience rates.

Experience per hour can easily be calculated per tree as (experience gain/cutting interval)*3600.

Selling logs is advisable to make it possible to purchase essential upgrades such as Axes or

so keeping some is recommended. It is also possible to sell the Bird Nests that are produced, which are worth more unopened on average compared to selling the seeds after opening.
