Need advice from you fencing experts....building a fence around our travel trailer on some property in Burnet, Texas. Using cedar post at corners and gates, T post in between. Using 48 inch field wire with a single strand of barb wire on top. Gates will be small entry type gates, not heavy. Longest run is 65 foot. I'm thinking if I take 7 inch cedar post on the corners, and set them 3 foot deep I shouldn't need to set H braces. Seems like with 3 foot of the post in the ground that would be sufficient for a 65 foot run. Am I wrong? Would much rather pay for one post in the corner, not the 5 it would take to make an H brace. But don't want to have to redo it in a year or two.
Has been suggested to not use concrete, but tamp in the rock and stuff from the hole and that will be sufficient. Will probably get equal number of opinions on that.
Thought please, thanks in advance,
