Agreed, but not with a hammer. Buy or rent an electric hammer drill
and you will find it becomes incredibly easy. Here in the desert there
is a layer of caliche, a layer of soil nearly as hard as rock, about
two feet below the surface and a hammer drill will punch through it
with almost no effort on your part. Manually driving a ground rod
through caliche is next to impossible no how much water you put down
the hole. Don't ask how I know. :-)
