Hello Mike,

I use a standard steel fence post pounder (basically about a three inch diameter steel pipe about 2 1/2 ft long with one end having a round lid welded over it and handles on the sides).  You can purchase one from a farm and ranch supply or borrow one from your friendly neighbor rancher.  I drove in the ground rods for all my beverage antennas in record time using this device and of course I use it for steel fence posts for beverage support poles too.

Hi All,

What is the best way to drive in my 8 ft. ground rods?  A big hammer?
