I was given a coffee can of 1 1/2" fender washers for free, and I have always used 2" washers on 18" of cable for my pogo's. Is there much difference in holding strength going with a 1 1/2" washer ? Ground is typical Indiana farmland soil with clay. -Thanks

Assemble a 1 1//2" and a 2" drive them in the ground and see if you can pull ether one. If you can't pull the 1 1/2" then you should be good to go. However free isn't always free in the long run.

When I used the Pogo system way back. I used 1 1/2” washers. They held just fine in the ground that I have. Never had a pullout

I used 1 1/2 for nothing bigger then a coon and had no problem. I prefer 2" though.
