[QUOTE="pdfangus, post: 563872, member: 6543"] I agree with the above. Relative to hot wire for bulls. I use two hot wires. One about where you mentioned say mid height of the fence. the other is on top of the fence. rationale is that if the bull puts his head over the fence and sees something that would incline him to cross the fence then having his head over the fence he will follow his head and either jump or just push. Hot wire at the top slows down the tendency to put the head over the fence. When it comes to bulls nothing much is guaranteed. I have had good luck with four strands of barb and two high tensile hot wires. [/QUOTE]
