[QUOTE="gcreekrch, post: 1471018, member: 14161"] Start with 8 to 10 inch x 10 ft. pressure treated posts on 12 ft. centers. 14 ft peeled or dry pine logs with 8 inch top, 5 high and an upright wired to the post to make them stay. I'm 6' 4" and can't see over. Never had a cow even try. My alley uses the same posts an 2x8 rough sawn lumber 8 high with a 4 inch space in the middle to accommodate a bar to keep them in. The other place is free standing panels 24 ft long and Hi Hog panels and gates for sorting alley, load and chute alley. We did hang snow fence on the free standing panels to keep heads from going through. [/QUOTE]
