Default Grounding Rods??

Where's the best place to purchase a grounding rod?
Any secrets to installing it?
Thanks all.

I've used ones purchased at the Home Depot with
success. If you don't have a sledge hammer, it can
get pretty darn tedious hammering it into clay (like
I've got locally). An electrician friend had the hammer
end welded to two sections of pipe, so that all he
had to do was fit the pipe over the ground rod and
basically let gravity do the work for him as needed.
