That pole was deep.

These are moments when the boys look at each other and think, "holy shit, it worked." Everyone high-fives after spending an hour hammering just to avoid an hour of digging. Win.

When I was an apprentice I lost a bet to a journeyman while on a storm job. I bet a case of beer it wouldn’t work. It worked. My foreman made me find an open liquor store to buy that man his case of beer.

Depend, depending on the utility, it should be 10% of the pole plus 2’. So if you are setting a 50’ pole you need to dig a hole at least 7’ deep.

When that big log finally releases 😂🤣

Typical depth of a pole is 10% of the poles height plus two feet

It doesnt t work all the time but when it does 🥂 I’ve had em come flying back at me 😳

Impressive use of that Haven or Chicago Clamp!

Has to be or the frost will lift it out

Very accurate statement “60 percent of the time, it works every time” There is no better way to describe this phenomenon. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤯😂😂

That’s what she said.

Damn. I would have just tossed some dirt on top and called her good

More fun when you make the rookie hold it with their hands.

Feel like I just took a dump.

that's cute trying to explain something that doesn't need an explanation

The hole must have been deep

That’s what she said

Probably in tornado alley 🤔

Bill walkers' pole pick does the same thing without the risk of sling shot of shock load when that fails.

It's a pole there's nothing holding it in

Rule of thumb, buried at 10% of the poles total length plus 2’, more once they get above 70’ or so.

Reminder to watch Oak Island 🤣

What's that? A tree? 🌴

Ducked in by slaves..

That gives me a good idea of how to get a broken gate post out. Thx 🤠🤠🤠

Reminds me of that time after I ate that bag of shredded cheese

Who in the high heaven's dug that ten foot post hole, put in a [wooden] post and filled with concrete, tornado proof?

there was a prince that got shot in the face with an arrow on the battlefield and they made a tool to drill into the arrowhead to remove it just like this

We do this all the time with wood posts and then put one back in the same hole. Usually 4 feet in the ground- screw in a big lag bolt with a chain and pull the busted piece out 👍

That's what she said.
