What the other people have suggested sound like good ideas for pulling a
ground rod. Something that might make it a little bit easier before
pulling
them with the chain and jack is to put a pipe wrench on the rod and turn
it
in the ground a few times. That way the bond between the dirt and the rod
is broken and it should pull up a little bit easier. In fact, while you
are
turning the rod, you might try pulling up on it a little bit at the same
time like you are unscrewing it from the ground.


This works! Have did it for years, never had a problem.
