Raycast hit info not registering on specific gameobject

Hello, I've been trying to do a tree system, it all works fine, it registers if the tag is "Tree" and works for the trees. However when the trees do the SpawnLogs() function that spawns a log, when I left click on the instantiated log object with the tag "Log" it doesn't do anything, it doesn't register at all.

Is this something to do with the instantiate part? Why isn't hitinfo registering the log the tree spawns?

Tree script that spawns the log:

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class Trees : MonoBehaviour
 {
     [Header("Tree Settings")]
     public float treeHealth = 100f;
     public GameObject logs;
 
     GameObject thisTree;
     GameObject player;
     Rigidbody rb;
 
     private void Start()
     {
         player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player");
         thisTree = this.gameObject;
         rb = thisTree.GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
         rb.isKinematic = true;
     }
 
     private void Update()
     {
         if(treeHealth <= 0)
         {
             rb.isKinematic = false;
             rb.AddForce(player.transform.right * 8);
             StartCoroutine(DestroyTree());
         }
     }
 
     private IEnumerator DestroyTree()
     {
         yield return new WaitForSeconds(5);
         Destroy(thisTree);
         SpawnLogs();
     }
 
     private void SpawnLogs()
     {
         Vector3 position = new Vector3(Random.Range(-1.0f, 1.0f), 0, Random.Range(-1.0f, 1.0f));
 
         Instantiate(logs, thisTree.transform.position + new Vector3(0, 0, 0) + position, Quaternion.Euler(90, 0, 90));
     }
 }

Axe script that gets the hitInfo:

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class Wooden_Axe : MonoBehaviour
 {
     float x = 87.4f;
     float y = 241.13f;
     float z = 4.5f;
 
     GameObject player;
 
     public float attackDistance = 5f;
 
     public float minDamage = 30f;
     public float maxDamage = 5f;
     public float eyeHeight;
 
     void Start()
     {
         player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("MainCamera");
         transform.localPosition = new Vector3(0.55f, -0.45f, 1);
         transform.localRotation = Quaternion.Euler(x, y, z);
     }
 
     void Update()
     {
         // Raycast
         Vector3 eyePosition = new Vector3(player.transform.position.x, player.transform.position.y + eyeHeight, player.transform.position.z);
 
         Ray ray = new Ray(eyePosition, player.transform.forward);
         RaycastHit hitInfo;
 
         Debug.DrawRay(ray.origin, ray.direction * attackDistance, Color.red);
 
         if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
         {
             if (Physics.Raycast(ray, out hitInfo, attackDistance))
             {
                 if(hitInfo.collider.tag == "Tree")
                 {
                     float axeDamage = Random.Range(minDamage, maxDamage);
 
                     Trees treeScript = hitInfo.collider.gameObject.GetComponent<Trees>();
                     treeScript.treeHealth -= axeDamage;
                 }else if(hitInfo.collider.tag == "Log")
                 {
                     float axeDamage = Random.Range(minDamage, maxDamage);
 
                     Logs logScript = hitInfo.collider.gameObject.GetComponent<Logs>();
                     logScript.logHealth -= axeDamage;
                 }
             }
         }
     }
 }

Is it to do with the Instantiate in the Tree script that instantiates the log? Because the log has the tag and a box collider so I see no reason why it's not working, unless I'm being dumb and missing something...
