That is all the deeper you set posts???? I set line post 3-4 foot and corners 4-5 foot.
I drive my field fence posts. My driver has a small 4 inch auger that you drill a pilot hole with and then drive the post into it. Nothing to back fill and still have a straight post.
On large corner posts or ones that have to be an exact distance, I drill holes but back fill with clean 3/4 stone. In dry conditions like you have the side walls are like concrete. That stone will make the post darn near as tight as concrete. I like doing them that way as the posts seem to last longer here.
I have a Shaver HD-12D driver with the pilot hole auger. It was not cheap but I have built miles of fence with it.
Here is a driver like mine. You can see the auger swung out of the way to drive.

Here is some of my fence. Not as good as looking as yours though.
P.S. I would just DIE in your heat and humidity!!!! LOL I am built for the COLD. I will take zero any day over 80-90.

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
