John (K9UWA) is absolutely right!  In most cases there is no need to go through all the back breaking effort of digging trenches.  I put the mower deck as low as it would go, then laid out the radial field and used sod staples to hold them in place.  The grass grew over everything and by the end of the year I couldn't even see them.  Several years later I have never hit one while mowing the lawn.  Many landscape places have the sod staples in boxes of 500 - 1000 for reasonable prices.
