Mike are you sure you're not making this a little hard on yourself and being penny wise and pound foolish?
If a well driller comes in and drills for only 8.00 a foot and you don't have to put in a well pump because you've hit artesian flow, that's not bad considering you will also get a larger casing for more flow. Average casings now are 4 inches. Not to mention the back breaking deal of doing it yourself. Did you know some states won't allow you to drill your own well?
