Voodoo - the Gardenhaus post is from quite a few months ago - not sure he's been back in awhile...
We haven't used slings yet for our larger trees - but we have used straps fed through the wire baskets. But most often we just use forks, lean the tree away from the skidsteer as we place the rootball at the far side of the hole, then tilt the forks down as we pull out. When we do it right, the tree is cradled into place and needs very little adjustment.
Planting some big Hawthornes...I still vividly remember being short-staffed at the first nursery job I had the day a semi came in with about 100 smaller Hawthornes - I had to unload them all. By the end it looked like I had been in a fight with 37 cats.
