I always used a lineman’s hammer: http://www.amazon.com/Estwing-E3-40L-EstWing-Linesman-hammer/dp/B000LDGBG8 Or a hand sledge: http://www.amazon.com/Estwing-MRF3LB-11-Inch-SureStrike-Drilling/dp/B00433SC4Q/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1432154165&sr=1-1&keywords=hand+sledge
For installing ground rods. Never much of a problem. Hold the rod with one hand and hammer with the other. Don’t miss.

I think I ended up getting 2 of them for $300 at auction. We already have a hydraulic power pack for other things...so it works well. It's also specifically for ground rods, not a rotary drill with an attachment.
