Removing brush and small trees is a huge hassle and anyone who has tried to remove brush or small trees knows how frustrating it can be. Here at Brush Grubber, we could never find any specific products devoted to removing small and large brush, and the old methods of wrapping a chain around small brush, using a shovel to remove roots, or trying to remove something larger were never easy. So, we put our heads together and the original Brush Grubber idea was born in the form of a tool that allows you to pull shallow-rooted brush and small trees easily and quickly. Everyone who tried the Original Brush Grubber said: “This thing is great!” We heard it so many times that we thought we must be onto something good, something so good that we decided to patent the idea. Now, since the original model, we’ve developed a full line of tools and are working on more! Our range of tools has models for use by hand, models for use with ATVs or UTVs, and models designed for use with skid loaders or small tractors. Now, we have a way to grip and pull out clumps of larger trees and shrubs. The BG-01 Original Brush Grubber by Brush Grubber is the perfect tool for removing your unwanted brush and small trees. This simple-to-use product quickly and easily pulls small trees and brush ½” to 3” in diameter from the ground – roots and all. The Original Brush Grubber attaches to any ATV or lawn tractor to make getting rid of bothersome brush even easier. The 16 total gripping teeth and the spring-loaded jaws are especially designed to ensure a strong and secure hold that grips tighter the harder you pull. To help provide a secure hold and avoid debarking, the two grip pads rotate a full 360 degrees each. Perfect for pulling buckthorn and other shallow-rooted invasive plants, this tool cleans brush quickly and effortlessly – it pulls out brush and small trees by the roots to take care of the mess with one tool and eliminates re-growth. Constructed of durable and long-lasting steel for a product that you can count on. The single-person operation tool is the ideal way to clean up your brush and small trees. Best for use on shallow-rooted trees and brush. Functionality can vary by root system, tree type, soil type, and ground conditions.

The spring action makes it easy to hang on the tree or bush. Good finish quality. Mine bent after a few uses at the upper limit of the rating. If you plan on pulling 3” trees get the next size up. The irony is I see the photo from the manufacturer hanging it off a 4” or larger tree as of 9/6/24.

This device works exactly as advertised. You open the jaws and attach them to a bush or small tree. The more force that is applied upon the device, the more it digs in. If you produce more force upon the small tree than the tree can resist, the tree is pulled out of the ground. The least worrisome part of that equation is the Brush Grubber. It never fails. I use a come-a-long and a chain to hook to the Brush Grubber to pull out trees. Easy does it. Things you chop have to be re-chopped. Things you pull stay pulled.

I used my ATV to pull up saplings up to 1.5 inches. It never missed a grab. Great grip.

Received the Brush Grubber BG-01 on Aug 5, 2017 and set about to use it on that day. Had about 15 maple sapling stumps to be removed, the largest being about 2 1/4". The BG-01 was chained off to the back of a small tractor. The BG-01 did well on about 12 of the stumps, but had started to notice it was not gripping and slipping off the few I had left. While some of the stumps were a bit stubborn coming out and not what I would consider 'deep rooted', I found the main arms on the BG-01 had bent which put the teeth out of alignment, thus causing it to be not able to grab a stump securely. Each stump pull I had done was a straight pull from the rear of the tractor and I surmise that the bolts holding the arms were loose from the manufacturer which allowed some twist in the arms which led to the bending. I disassembled the BG-01 and with a sledge hammer was able to pretty much straighten both arms and get it put back together (if you should happen to have to take yours apart, pay attention to what spacing washers go where as there is no diagram anywhere to be found on how it's assembled and some washer placement wasn't readily obvious). It would be wise to check the snuggness of the bolt/nuts to reduce the chance of the arms twisting,Pulling more stumps Aug 14, 2017 and knowing the problem with the bending of the arms was particularly careful, but again the main arm bent. This time I took a picture to post here (red line shows where the arm should be).The concept and design are basically good, but flawed by the steel used on the main arms. Not sure I would purchase this item again knowing the quality wasn't quite what I would expect for the price.

I've been using this BG-01 brush grubber with a 2-ton ratcheting come-along puller lashed to a tree along with all 5/16-inch grade 43 chain to remove scrub oak stumps from my yard. It has actually been working very well and has successfully pulled probably close to 40 stumps along with the roots, ranging in size from around an inch up to approximately 3-inches in diameter. The scrub oak had previously been cut off at ground level so I needed to dig down a few inches to get at the meat of the stumps for the jaws to grab on securely. I also gave each jaw arm a little love tap with a hammer to fully set the teeth before beginning each pull and the grubber never slipped off once, even when under tremendous tension. This grubber is made from good quality steel with nicely welded joints. It is the same basic design as a pallet puller, except it has spring loaded jaws and modified jaw pads that rotate 360-degrees. The current model has an improved design for the closing spring which is now captive with nuts and washers so can't pop off like it sometimes could on the older model. Overall, this grubber has been working out great for my needs, so I would have no issue at all recommending it.BTW: I lost one of the E-clips that hold the jaw pin in place when dragging the grubber through dirt and rocks, so I drilled a 7/64" hole right through the center of the groove where the clip went and put a cotter pin in to substitute for the missing E-clip. It works great and seems like a much more secure way to attach it, so I did the same to the other jaw pin to avoid future trouble.

Awesome piece of gear. Latches onto trees like glue - one tug with the backhoe and it's all over. And this is just the little one..........

This tool is great. I use it with a nylon tow strap and my pickup truck. Pretty much, if I can get it around the trunk, I can pull it out. The Grubber is really heavy duty and seems well made. I've had a few pretty big volunteer trees that required me giving the truck a little gas to pull them out and the grubber has shown no signs of breaking.I do have some suggestions for use:- Wear Gloves: The little green spikes are kind of sharp and don't feel too good if your finger gets caught under one when snapping it on a tree.- Use a Tow-Chain if you can: I use a tow strap because that's the only thing I have long enough. I have had a few instances where the strap kind of "rubber-banded" the tree into the back of my truck. I don't think this would happen with a heavy tow chain. (Don't hold me this, its just my guess since I haven't tried it.)- Make sure the spikes are firmly set into what you're pulling out: I've had a few times where the Grubber pulled loose and shot up under my truck. I find it works best to get the spikes a little past the widest part of the truck and then tug on the strap to make sure the spikes set into the bark.The only downside, if you want to call it that, is that its very addictive and satisfying to use. Sometimes its hard to stop pulling stuff out. We inherited some property that has had years of neglect and there's a lot of unwanted growth. We're steadily working to get it looking better. I use this to clear all the larger volunteer trees. The places I'm clearing are around structures or in the middle of plants we want to keep, so I have to be selective in what I'm taking out. Its great to see the immediate results and taking out unsightly foliage.
