So... *You flew back and removed the sticks from the runway?


One of our club pilots landed his open cirrus at a grass airport,
instead of sticks and other bits he had the tow pilot snug the rope,
both applied brakes and he had the tow pilot advance the throttle
until the prop wash was enough for him to level the wings using
aileron control, then they released brakes and rolled off to a perfect
take-off.
