Stihl is the way to go once you wear that drill out from over working it

I bet it’ll work I had a guy that traps near me tell me that’s what he uses and said it’ll work here.

In all seriousness....that is way too much bite for that size drill. A 3" auger is almost too much. That looks like 6" or more. In pure sand you might be able to hold on to it, but the underground unknowns...??

When that blade grabs a rock or root you'll get a sprained wrist or worse.

If the ground is light enough to get that bad boy to work, then the ground will pour back into the dirt hole and become less than optimal.
Maybe a few sets a year rig?

Wouldnt work in my ground. Maybe soft loose sand but then it will collapse I would think as fast as you drill it out. I have a difficult time with a 3 inch auger due to roots, clay and rocky soil. Better have a few drills handy and several batteries.

Most likely will burn up a drill to two.If you have a drill with a built in safety break you wont drill much before it shuts off frequently due to the stress on the motor.

I have 6 rigid drills with that built in over load system. they all shut off due to motor stress and heat sensors after some use with augers. The older drills didnt due that.

If it works in your area, that is all that matters.
