Brush GrubberBG-13 Handy Grubber Large

Great

I had very high hopes for this tool; however, it is worthless!I purchased the "hand" solution because I wanted quick assistance clearing small brush and Buck Thorn but the "teeth" are simply too large to "grab" whatever I'm wanting to pull up.If/when the teeth ARE able to grab...that means whatever I'm trying to pull up is too large to pull up by hand.The teeth are also "clamping" at a tiny and fractional point toward the front, meaning it is super challenging to get a brush stem precisely positioned at that junction for the tool to have any effective grip on the stem.The fact that the teeth swivel actually makes it less effective because the teeth just swivel around the stem you are trying to "grab" and not puncturing the stem from both sides.Per Buck Thorn, the primary reason I purchased the tool, it is especially useless because the "grab" is so poor it just pulls the skin off...making the next attempt even more challenging as the stem is now very slippery.I did get the tool shipped to me very quickly, so no slam against the company I bought it from, but the tool shouldn't be sold as a "handy grubber"...it isn't handy and it isn't a grubber.

Wants to stick when you attached to a brush.

This little device really works well. Hooked up to a come-along I pulled out the majority of small treels and bushes that has taken serious root. I was so im pressed at the strength of this little tool and the ease of use that I went back and purchased the heavier duty version.

They won't grab the small (1/4 to 1/2") trees that they should. The jaws just slip on the thin trunks because the jaw design sucks. Don't waste your money until they update the jaws, them grab one.

To remove weed roots after being mowed over. Although a little heavy for seniors.

We were SO hopeful that the Bruch Grubber would be hte answer to uprooting the dozens of oak trees sprouting in our yard. Sadly, all it did was strip the leaves off the stem and the root remained deeply rooted in the ground.

This tool is easy to use, but you may have to dig around the plant that you are pulling. Otherwise it may break the plant instead of pulling it.

Works good if sapling in thick enough to hold on to, but by then you need allot of pulling power to get it out. Requires lots leverage and you must be careful not to use your back, bend knees and lift with legs.
