GROUND ROD AND STAKE PULLER
A ground rod and guy stake extractor according to the present approach overcomes many deficiencies of contemporary methods, and allows for the rapid extraction of ground rods and guy stakes across a full range of environments, and at a wide range of extraction angles, with a straight pull on the item being extracted. Embodiments may be lightweight, easily transported, and operated by a single individual. Embodiments may include a winch, winch cable system, and support structure. The geometry is such that it is easy and straight forward to align the direction of pull with any rod or ground stake, and particularly for those driven into the ground within the commonly prescribed angular limits, thus assuring a continuous, steady pull of at least four feet in most embodiments. Guy stakes can therefore be easily extracted in one step, and typically ground rods (because of their length) in two steps.
