Before you bury that starter you might want to have it bench tested.

But like ol @Tcoat said, it sure do sound like a weak battery. Have you had it load tested?

Getting shocked as a kid reminds me of the time my father asked me to hold onto the spark plug wire to the gasoline engine of the grain elevator, as he pulled the rope ..... to see if it was getting spark - yep, that happened .... ONCE!
