I used a different kind of post hole digger on a job in Spokane and it was a game changer
Last month I was putting in a cedar fence for a client and their ground was full of river rock. My normal auger just kept jamming. I borrowed a friend's manual clamshell digger with the serrated edges, thinking it would be slower. I got the first hole done in maybe 15 minutes, which was way faster than fighting the power tool. The serrated edges just cut through the small rocks like nothing. Now I keep one in my truck for rocky spots. Has anyone else found a better tool for rocky soil?

Right? Sometimes the simple tool wins.

Had that happen last week. Just gotta get the angle right and pop it under the edge. Works every time.

Interesting, but my experience was the opposite. The clamshell just bounced off the bigger rocks here.
