[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 125143"] I personally run barbed wire and have never had a problem with my bull fighting with my neighbors bull and vice versa. I am running 6 strand barbed wire. Not sure if that has anything to do with it or not. Some bulls just fight and there is no way around it. I have seen electric with a good pop work on bulls. Yes they still walk the fence but they stay so far back from it that there is no way they could get to the other cows. One good jolt is usually all it takes and from that point on most cows and bulls for that matter come to respect an electric fence. I know an old farmer that has is cows so well trained on an electric fence that on the back of his head gate shoot he ties a piece of twine. The cows are so deathly afraid that the twine is a hot wire that they dont try and back up and turn out of the shoot. If anything they run right into the head catcher. In their eyes they would rather face the head catcher than the electric fence. [/QUOTE]
