The Weed & Brush Puller is a gripping device that allows one to remove large or woody weed stalks from a standing position. Two intersecting, oblong "nodes" fastened to the end of the handle pivot up freely when slid around the weed or brush stalk to be removed then pinch together when the handle is pulled upward. A steel plate just above the grippers provides leverage against the ground when pulling tough weed/brush stalks, while the long handle provides additional leverage.
