    Had three chunkies left from the pin oak at my recent score. Embedded a foot into the ground. Two foot diameter and triple crotch at the top. Bucked as far as i could. Tried cant and it wasnt budging. Had to get creative. Clothesline hook into the log and come a long hooked on my bumper. Worked like a charm. Normally i wouldve left the chunkies, but was committed to getting them out. First time ive ever tried this.
