Some time back I seem to remember people saying they can cut a plug better and faster with a Lesche Sampson T-Handle shovel than with a Lesche standard digging tool (knife style). I have both and I haven’t been able to get a plug from the shovel good enough that I’m comfortable using it in a park with well-kept grass. I also haven’t been able to find anything on the interwebs showing anyone getting a good enough plug from it. In fact, I don’t see much in the way of videos using the shovel at all.
I realize I’m asking how to use a shovel. I feel silly about it but I’ve picked all the easy shallow targets from my favorite spot and I’m going after the deeper stuff. It’s a very old site so deep can be 12 inches just to find a rusty square nail. It’s far from all nails so I’m digging everything but I’d like to speed things up.
Does anyone have any advice regarding the use of a Sampson T-Handle on a lawn? Or should I stick to the standard digger?
