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 you can see the auger in use.
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.

As I grew older (7), it was the thrill of my day to ride or drive on the tractor. My Papaw had a 1954 IH Super A that he bought to replace a Cub. My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to
