Start with banging in the fencing posts with the rear mounted knocker. Another good reason for having a front 3 point is carrying the fencing device. the whole job can all be carried out by one man.
The start of the stock fence is stapled to the straining post. We call that angled wooden post a "god father".

This 8 wire stock fence is the most commonly used over here. Reference is C8-80-15
C = 3mm diameter top & bottom wire & 2.5mm diameter verticals and intermediate horizontals - all galvanised wire.
