I've considered the brush grubber chain thing with rings but the reviews I've read are somewhat mixed. I typically wind my chain 3x around whatever I'm pulling; the end of the chain has a slip hook and I put that over the chain leading back to the tractor so that tension will tighten the chain on the tree/shrub.
This works great for me on everything except smaller multi-stalk shrubs, which I only have a few of, but nothing I've got other than a backhoe will handle them currently (it's the one spot on my land I'm considering herbicide!). I've tried using a webbing strap but that broke; I'm not sure how much stronger the brush grubber chains are as they look a bit smaller than my other chains.
I'd make my own but that spiky chain doesn't seem easy to buy; I'd like to hear if it works well... or doesn't.
