Yew

Yew trees can be used in Woodcutting, Farming, and Construction. As with all trees above normal trees, they yield multiple yew logs when chopped.

They require level 60 in the corresponding skill to chop, plant, or place in a house. Presently, there is high demand for logs to be used in Fletching and to a lesser extent Firemaking, and as such it is rare to see a vacant tree. Macros commonly target yew trees due to their high value. As a result, certain trees had an almost constant population of macros around them. However, ever since the new trading system update designed to deter macros, most yew trees now have few, if any bots cutting one.

Woodcutting
A great way to make money is to cut Yew trees down and sell the resulting logs at the Grand Exchange. It is recommended to have 75 woodcutting or higher while cutting yew trees so you can get logs at a faster rate. At 60 - 74 woodcutting, cutting yew trees are slightly slow.
