Works fine for me now. Maybe the site was just running slow. Need to have a talk to the owner of that site!

In looking at your old post, one thing that is sometimes useful for using a posthole digger for planting is to weld a bolt onto a flight of the auger so that the sides of the hole are rough, not glazed. Maybe that's not a problem with your soil, though. In clay or silty clay soils, it can create an area that plants have a hard time penetrating beyond.

On the jackhammer option, I've never tried one but they are built heavier but that also will wear you out lugging around and also be a bit more tiring to be holding over at an angle to dig under the trees. The Dyna Diggr is probably a decent compromise between mobility and durability.
