Digging Post Holes without Destroying Yourself.

11. Digging bars are worth their weight in gold

Our property was filled with construction debris which we did not discover until attempting to plant trees and shrubs. I have dislodged large chunks of asphalt, concrete, rebar, animal bones and enough rocks large and small to build a second house (if I were inclined to). My digging bar has the chisel end and a pointed end. I've dug up the root balls of numerous small trees, shrubs and grape vines.

That said, the backyard fence is in bad need of replacement and we are very likely going to let the pros take care of the job.
