Sam,

I run one strand of barbed wire around the whole shootin' match about belt high using wood posts only on the corners and small steel posts about every twenty five steps or so.

I use glass insulators tied out at the corners and whatever I can buy for the small steel posts; usually just plastic insulators.

High human traffic areas need an insulated "hook" so that you can open and close this "gate" without getting shocked yourself. All it is, is a spring loaded "handle" that you hook on and off to the hot wire.

Don't use that puny drug store wire; cattle can't see the stuff if they happen to get spooked and they'll run right thru it before they realize they are on it.

Allan
