Previously I've just used a spade to dig-out holes for concrete spurs but I'm tempted by either an auger or a "post hole digger" ... which works best? These are available from several places; the SF ones get good reviews but look a bit expensive compared to the others ... is the extra cost justified?
Supplementary: how much postcrete am I likely to need when setting a
75x75 spur into a 600x150'ish round hole? (I know I could do some sums but in this case I think benefitting from experience is going to give a better estimate)
