He's full of shite. Ours in Texas were only 20-30 foot in diameter and we killed close to 50 deer over 150"s in 10 years

Just realized this is old and I had already responded

Set a few 2-3/8” Posts for strength. Drive at least 2’ in ground. Run Barb Wire an inch above your 36” wire and on the bottom. Do not go cheap on any of it.


We are going to try all barbed wire. Nothing else.

Adding electric rope to the bottom 6” of barbed wire.

If this works, it’ll be a lot cheaper.

T posts: $100-$150
Electric Fence Equipment: $200
Barbed Wire: free

Works well. Hogs may travel through and root around the outside at first, but will quit coming when they figure it they can't get in.

May take your deer a while to get used to it, but they'll be jumping over by the season if you put it up now.

Oh yes. I’ve had my first one up (welded wire 30’ diameter) for a year and it’s a deer palace now. Big bucks every day and night.

Highly suggest if you have pigs. It’ll change your herd
