[QUOTE="SmokinM, post: 1628091, member: 21382"] JmJ that is not bad.when I build board fence I auger and set everything by hand and probably average 6 posts an hour but try to keep everything within a 1/4. Board fence is my bread and butter and what I have a reputation for. I drill with a skid steer though which makes a huge difference in drill time. I would say in good ground with extra weight you might get 10 an hour with the Hammer. They are averaging about 35 an hour with the Montana driver. Some straight stretches in softer ground they have done 50. That’s a 5-6x7’ posts driven 30” with a few 8’ driven to 42” for braces thrown in. I wouldn’t have/ didn’t believe it til I saw it. Your not going to drive a sq. post straight here with anything. They spiral as they go down and break usually after about 18”. With the big driver I had before I drove a few really solid railroad ties to about 3’ but it had a 750# weight and a 16’ mast so you could put a lot of stroke on it. [/QUOTE]
