Around 5 years ago, I cut 4 trees in the yard as close to the ground as I could. After weed trimming around them for years, was in a rush I suppose and thought I might try raising the deck, throttling down and easing over them. It worked, no tipping. I kept this up for a few mowings, then one cold morning on the second stump, a blade made contact. I then realized with the cold, the tire pressure dropped some psi and squatted a bit. All the other times were in the evening with warm weather. Back to trimming, got a bit careless on that.

On my trees, I dig around the base, so I can cut it below grade.. Then back fill over w/dirt & gone..
Yelp I need to do something different like that. I been driving a big nail in the stump and tie a fluorescent orange surveying ribbon around the nail. Only problem the color fades or grass blocks the view and "Bang!" you nailed it again
