The timeless posts are awesome. I have about 4 miles of high-tensile electric fencing on my farm and I used Timeless posts for all my line posts. Like you, I used wooden h-braces and wood posts for extreme rises, dips, or slight changes in direction. extremely The main reason I used wooden brace posts was partly cost but also, the method of installation for the Timeless braces was extremely labor intensive--for the cost of a few braces, I can hire my buddy to drive 6" wooden posts with a skidsteer mounted driver and do 50-80 posts a day depending on soil moisture. The only thing I will say, is that they are definitely not fireproof: while a neighbor was baling hay, one of the bales caught on fire, the fire spread, and melted a few of my posts. It wasn't a big deal to repair, but you should keep in mind, that if you thread the wire through the holes and later need to replace that post, the best thing to do is to use a pair of bolt cutters, cut the plastic near the holes the wire runs through and pull the post out. Then all you need to do is drive a new post flush with the wire and use t-post clips or high-tensile wire to fix the wire at the heights you want. The other thing is if you hit them hard enough at the base---like if you made contact with a bushhog or implement---you can snap them cleanly off, but that can also happen with steel as well.
expected a boring video about a fence but this was funny, your kid creeping in the background 🤣 also I didnt expect a scare at the end, had the volume up to high lol
maybe not, although i will say it seems like for the direct downward force the are pretty strong, also i think if you went 1 size up from these they would be MUCH sturdier based on the sample i saw in the past...heres a video showing them going through hardpan that greg judy did thats worth checking out th-cam.com/video/OFTtGWiCECY/w-d-xo.html

Not sure it would work with goats.
Let us know and see the fence. I’m looking at this product as well for pigs.
Will do, my land clearing just got done and I'm about to deploy so I won't be putting fence in until middle of the year due to time constraints

Only so much you can for a video about fencing material but i try!
No way those would work in hard ground. Wouldn’t stand a chance.

Watch the video of Greg Judy installing timeless fence in Arizona hard pan. He used a water drill first.
@@Hatchet5575 in rock/rocky soil it requires a impact drill with a 1" or larger long masonry bit
$50+/- for the corner post is ridiculous
I think the corner is actually like 250 to 380 depending which you use
2029 is the end of the next seven year cycle not 2025. Lol
it is CHEAPER
