[QUOTE="Arrowman, post: 8142586, member: 44458"] I'll second that. Worked for a fencing contractor for a few years doing agricultural jobs and road jobs. My advice is: use the longest strainer you can get into the ground. Use a good post driver if you can get one. I use an arrowhead rock hammer type driver on a 5 ton digger on my farm. Used 12' strainers (6" diam) in places for fences 1.2m high (well strutted) and arguably still not long enough. If you're on real tight clay ground a 7' strainer may be good enough. But a lot of it comes down to how tight you consider tight enough for the wire. Long story short, the 8' is preferable to a 7' by a mile if you can get it in the ground. [/QUOTE]
