Another Advantage to Consider:

A Driveable Handgrip gives you the option of retrieving core samples with a sampling tube. Simply replace the auger at the end of your extensions with a JMC Sampling Tube and a PN110 JMC Auger to Sampling Tube Adapter and you are ready to go. (see picture at right)
In fact, if you want to obtain an extremely accurate sample from a particular strata, you will have the best results with this procedure:
- Carve a hole with your auger down to the top of the desired strata.
- Replace the auger head with any
JMC Sampling Tube and a
PN110 JMC Sampling Tube Adapter.
- Remove any loose debris inside the hole with a vacuum cleaner.
- Lower the sampling tube into the hole and take your sample.
