[QUOTE="tyromeo55, post: 2895196, member: 1719"] Look and see if the cutting edge is on the bottom side of the bit. It is normally that way so it does not grab in normal soil. On harder holes like clay it is better some times to have the cutting edge ground from the top and at a sharper angle. That way is almost feeds its own cut ( for lack of a better description). If you modify your bit then It can wear out pretty quick so the last one I did I made the cutting tip out of 1/2 bar and welded it on. [/QUOTE]
