It there a way to drive them with a battery drill.
I am thinking about at least drilling the hole a little smaller than
the screw.


Drill the pilot hole then just use a screwdriver or similar thru the eye

there's an adapter that one can get to allow use of a drill for this
purpose. it's basically a pipe with a slot cut out.
