I’m used to the root ball wanting to sit back in it’s hole. I was suspicious about this one and secured it to a tree behind it but was thinking this is a waste of my time as I was doing it. After I cut the tree and released the strap to the root ball, it violently fell right where I was standing when I was cutting the tree.
