Hi Dan, If you have a 3pt hitch on your H, I would highly recommend purchasing some type of 3pt logging winch like the one shown in this youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&feature=endscreen&v=DxrD_d_kpyQ
I have hauled thousands of logs out of the woods with various models of tractors using the 3pt hitch drawbar. Not a very safe practice with a smaller tractor. Several years ago my brother purchased a used 3pt logging winch at an auction sale and it is 100% safer. The front of the log is not dragging on the ground so cannot snag a root or rock but if it does and the front end of tractor goes in the air it will stop when the bottom of the logging winch hits the ground. Also with a long winch cable you don't have to back off the trail very far risking putting a stub or rock through your rear tires.
BE VERY CAREFUL!! In our area, about a month ago an older farmer was crushed by his tractor when he was attempting to pull cedar stumps out of his pasture with the chain hooked to a 3pt hitch drawbar.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
