1. He's using a drill
2. He probably has it on the wrong setting for speed and torque.

Blue, Red, Yellow, or Green 1/4" hex impact drivers are what you want. What's more important is the quality of the driver bit and screws. DeWalt and Milwaukee have excellent driver bits and accessories, use self-drilling coated deck screws. If you are camming out screws or trying to drive oxide-coated drywall screws into treated wood, you are just wasting power and putting more wear on the tools.

I picked up two batteries as well. I can't recommend ryobi enough. We've built houses, docks, etc etc with all our stuff. Definitely get the impact drill
I picked up 2 sets and got an LED Spotlight and a Bluetooth Radio since I already have pretty much all the drills/saws I need.

Home Depot running Milwaukee tool kits sales right now.
I picked up a 4 pack including a impact driver delivered for $199.
It's 12 volt system but it's great.
I have an 18v set as well..

Get one of these Drill/Drive attachments to use with whatever drill and your problems should be over. Ryiobi makes a good one too.

inexpensive Dewalt
They are not relatively inexpensive. If you just bought it, Lowes should replace it for free
*You dont need a hammer drill unless you are drilling into concrete. For building a deck you would be much better off with just a cordless impact driver.

Decided to replace my drill, so bought an inexpensive Dewalt at Lowe’s for about $100. It is a corded 8 amp with switch that lets you switch to hammer drill mode.
Dewalt impact drill has been 99 bucks for awhile now. For 150 you get a battery and a charger.

Impact driver is the answer but I don’t blame anybody for not wanting to use the loud SOB’s.

All the top names are good. Makita, Bosch, Dewalt, Milwaukee.
My top pick for impact driver is the Dewalt. It has the best trigger response of all the previously mentioned products. If all you are doing is pile driving 3" deck screws, any will work.
But if you are driving pocket hole screws where a little finesse is needed, go with the Dewalt.
