[QUOTE="Hardin Farms, post: 1593920, member: 38719"] Lots of great opinions here! I appreciate the input! Fencing is one of those things that everyone has their own opinion about. That's why i like asking questions...gives you somethings to mull over. I do have the fence line cleared, but part of my fence goes through a wooded are that would cost way to much to clear the trees far enough back. I do keep the fence line cleaned enough to ride the SxS through to check daily. Try to keep everything sprayed back as well. Our area is over run with deer, so that is something i need to consider. We have had problems in the past with new cattle not used to hot wire running through it when they first get on the property.. I am in the building stage of the farm, so new cattle will be a common thing. If i built anything more than a 5 strand barbed wire fence around here, people would swear i have gone mad!! These old timers around here swear by a good ole 5 strand red brand barbed wire fence! Those extra few strands would help keep the calves from easing under it too. I like that idea! [/QUOTE]
