I have been using the 1 ½ inch electric fencing for several
years, at 3 different places with great success and economy.? Tried several of
the manufacturers and have found fencing from Horsegurardfence.com the
strongest and most economical.? Their tape is stronger so you only have to put
posts 16 feet apart instead of the 12 feet suggested by other manufacturers.? I
use it with T posts that have top caps which include the fastener for the top
line.? The tape costs more than other brands but the fasteners are stronger,
holding the tape firmer and the cost is easily made up it the difference of
posts required.
Once in awhile, a horse will hit the fence (you find the skid
marks outside the fence) and just bounce back with no damage to the horse or
the fence.? The tape comes in white, green and brown.? While I would prefer the
brown for eye appeal, the white makes it easy to spot problems (fallen trees).?
The other advantage to the tape with T posts is it is so easy to move when you
change your mind on the fence configuration.
