  1. There is a big difference between ground protection and bog mats, these 8 x 4 mats will just let the machine slid of if used in the wet, true mats are timber baulks bolted together if really wet I’ve used sleepers stitched together four / five is about as much as a three tonne digger can handle, then hay make your way out and back using as many as you can afford

My solution would be to re excavate the hole trying not to smear the sides, use a fork and don’t stand in the hole.fork the bottom to full depth of the tines then add two cups of lime mix in a 150 mm layer of gravel then backfill the hole with quality topsoil, not the. Compost / sand crap that most sell, then plant your tree on a raised mound, perhaps get smaller tree also would put drains under the artificial grass the tree pit is acting as a sump
