This is too funny. Using a circular saw to cut a tree down?
Get an electric chain saw at the local rental shop. It will cut the tree
down faster than it took you to type up the message.

Tree roots have dirt, sand, and rocks mixed in. Roots will dull a saw very
rapidly. The one time I did a tree removal, it was sawzall, and a heck of a
lot of work.

Like another has said, a 4x4 pickup and a sturdy rope. I've pulled out
small (8' tall) maple trees and a large 'Rose of Sharon' bush with my truck.
