Has the type of brush been determined?


My apologies for my lack of specificity. The type of brush is the plant type.


How big is this brush plant?

Have a truck and a 4" nylon strap 25' long?

Snatch it out!! Tie close to the ground and rip the do-bad out.


I pulled an old pussy willow shrub from my back yarf years ago with
my old Firenza (Vauxhall Viva HC/Magnum) using an old truck rim and
heafy rope. Tied the rope to the rood, run it over the upright rim,
tied to the bumper hitch, and give it a yank. Popped the roor right
out of the ground (rim as close to the root as bossible to give good
lift)


Thanks. Never heard of using a vehicle wheel rim, now that I think
about it, it makes sense - "pivot leverage"?

Once we did drill a well with a '61 Chevy with an extra rim (two
welded together).
