I just got a new 7" auger bit and blades for my Strikemaster power head and drilling holes, it wants to pull the whole auger down after it breaks through the ice, almost like the bit is slightly bigger than the blades cut. If I'm ready for it, I can usually stop it from pulling me down, but a few times it has still pulled me down a bit, and with only a foot of ice or so, it's not bad, was wondering how it's going to be with 2 feet or more. Has anybody else experienced this or know why it might be happening?
Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday.
What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures.
Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.

Any info on this would be appreciated.
