That's the first clear explanation I've seen on how it works. I'm gonna give it a try

If your gut tells you its wrong. Resample. Take more samples and be sure you are not sticking the probe in too deep. JMO
Jogeephus: I threw the probe away. Here is the way that I do it now. Real easy. Get a 3 to 4" cap for PVC pipe. Drill a hole in it about 1." dia. Get a wood bit and a rechargable drill. The bit needs to be about 8 to 12 " long. Hold the PVC cap firmly on the ground and drill through the hole to the depth that you desire. Pick it up and dump it into your bucket that you are collecting for the composite sample. By the way this is not an original idea. Another man told me about using this. Beats digging the dirt out of the probe.
