Kaleb, if you haven't replaced it yet, these things are generally repairable. There is a "rubber" plug at the base of the vertical tube and the plug wears out over time and leaks or limits flow. The plug works like a switch allowing water to flow into the pipe or allowing the pipe to drain.

Well I got down to the bottom and there is what appears to be a drain hole. When you shut off the water it drains out the hole into the ground so it doesn’t freeze. This appears to be where it is leaking so I guess the handle is not completely shutting off the water. I do see where it is
