Thread: Post hole borer recommendations

I see many of these have only a ~40cc engine and look lightly built. Those bigger two-man units are possibly more what is needed here. What a people's experiences/recommendations?

just a thought we built a big set of circular cattle yards at a station I worked on could hold 500 cattle so instead of us drilling all the holes we got the power board in -marked out all the holes and only took them about 3 hours to drill all the holes we needed with a truck mounter borer normally used to drill power poles in- easy peasy
