The soil in central Texas is called Caliche with a lot of clay, CaCO3 & shale. Attempting to drive in a ground rod yielded only a mushroom on top & blisters on me. Local tool rental place has concrete bits, but maximum length of 18 inches. Possibly longer bits are available in a larger city. Renting a back hoe is out. Any suggestions appreciated.
