This spring I'm going to start a project in my back yard and I will need to
dig about two dozen post holes. The holes will need to be about 8 inches in
diameter and 18 inches deep.

I have seen ads for a manual Post Hole Auger that seems like it would be a
lot easier to use than a post hole digger.

Has anyone ever used one of these augers and if so how would you rate them.

Thanks

Are you in very good shape or do you plan to be by the time your done?

24 holes that deep sounds like a lot to me.

You could also rent a power auger.

http://www.postholeauger.com/ shows a lot of different things.

I think looking further augurs well for you.
