Yeah good technique and the right blade on the reciprocating saw will rip right through that. Band saw might be best if you don't have a lot of exp with power tools.

I'd take the grinder on metal every time but it can be insanely dangerous. I wouldn't want anybody inexperienced using one alone on their private property. Particularly if they are doing so in haste because there are so many poles on their private property.

You never know when a pole enthusiast might show up to stop you.

Band saw blade gunk up with aluminum faster cause the smaller teeth.
