I used metal T-posts to fence my 80 acres. 655+ - 145 gauge T-posts. I did this in 1982 and all were installed with a very heavy, manual post driver. The posts and fencing still stand - straight, tight and true.
I do have a wet area. About 120 feet with eight or so T-posts. Because the posts are exposed to seasonal wet/dry conditions - they "corrode off" - at the ground level - every ten years or so.
I go into this area - pound in new posts and tie off the barbed wire fencing to the new posts.
I would definitely recommend metal T-posts. Easy to drive - hold fencing well - simple to replace on a routine maintenance schedule.
