Nice in sand, but what can it do in shells, clay or rocks . My Stealth digs throw all of it !!!

Bought my now and I think I will give it a swing for those long days!

That guy uses the shovel to pretty good effect! He makes an awful lot of digs and fairly quickly. Entertaining couple of guys, I watched some of their other video's. I already have my scoop so I think I will stick to that. I end up around an awful lot of rocks and whatnot.

One must be the worst at pin-pointing to require a tool that excavates a crater.

I just finally started modifying scoop and for 12 bucks you cant beat it also as far digging a crater. Its like me telling my brother in law about trotline crabbing over hand lining in the Chesapeake Bay. His response was "Would you rather eat crabs or have fun" I found that they are both fun and you get to eat more crabs.

Those guys are from the Gold Coast up here in Aus, that nylon shovel is the type you find in food factories in the clean up areas, it is a modest attempt at a good shovel at best, totally useless in wet sand, and too much bending over in the dry. They have drilled those holes.
