Don't know what to tell you there. Most of mine here is along a regular barb wire fence just to keep them from reaching through, not really needed to keep them in. I have cheap insulators on there and not really close enough together and sometimes it gets knocked or falls off of the longer kind. It's very heavy high tensile wire so I should have better. I've had a couple times where it was laying on the ground for a distance for a couple days, still shocking all the way to the end, and there'd be a streak of dry grass where it was laying. Also, one part I cut across is by a windbreak with tall grass/weeds, not grazed, never worry about it. It does just kill off what touches it. The only issue I ever had with it was when it was on the north section. It was a very dry/severe drought year and the one corner was high, dry sand. Wouldn't shock there, so I ended up running a ground wire on the fence. When it did rain it didn't bother, and it was only in the one area, it shocked past there in lower ground and further away from that yard. I know it's not a premium one, but I can't complain, works as good as the old one did. All I can say is, you are running some miles but it's a small area relatively. What you have "should" be stout enough I'd think. But for whatever reason it isn't, so it looks like you'll have to spend some $$. Ground good, wire not shorting somewhere (and good wire), not much else to say.

Today's Featured Article - Box Plow Blues - by Tom Schwarz. One of the first implements most tractor owners obtain is the box plow. For very little money, this piece of equipment promises to plow and flatten any hill or vale on your ranch road or farm. At least that's what I thought! As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
