A tool for removing a pole from the ground, comprising:
- a rod having a first end and a second end, wherein the rod includes first threads at the first end that are configured for penetrating the pole and securing the rod to the pole;
- a drive feature coupled to the rod proximate the second end;
- and
- a hook disposed at the second end of the rod.
A tool for removing pole from the ground, comprising:
- a rod having a first end and a second end, wherein the rod includes first threads at the first end having a pointy end configured for penetrating the utility pole, and wherein the rod includes second threads at the second end, wherein the first threads extend at a first angle with respect to an axis of the rod and the second threads extend at a second angle with respect to the axis of the rod, wherein the first angle is different than the second angle;
- a nut coupled to the rod proximate the second end via the second threads;
- and
- an eye nut removably coupled to the rod at the second end.
A method of removing a pole from the ground, comprising:
- coupling a tool having a rod that includes a threaded first end into the pole;
- and
- pulling the rod from a hook disposed at a second end of the rod, opposite the first end, to remove the pole from the ground.
