If you must do this.....hook the chain to the front of the tractor and pull backward. If your cutting the trees, cut them up as high as you can reach and hook the chain high on the stump to get more leverage. Take a plow or blade and cut as many of the roots as possible....be prepared to dig and chop.....a good grubbing hoe and tamping bar....and a lot of sweat.....they come out easier when the ground is damp. Not the kind of thing to do much farther out in the year, and they get harder as it gets dryer.... Quite honestly, pulling stumps isn't easy, it's hard on equipment, and it's dangerous. Be very careful. Back in my granddad's day (when liberty prevailed) they could buy dynamite and blow the stumps.....you don't have any friends with a blasting license do you?
