ADC, this is the post I saw the other day and have been trying to find it ever since. You state you make the post 5' long? How far in the ground do you drive them? What type of soil are you driving into? Would 4' long work just as well?

That's not enough IMO to hold in every situation. But, If the ground is very firm or frozen it'll work. I drive them with a pipe like a steel fence post driver so they are easy to install and I pull the tough ones with a modified bumper jack. This isn't for a guy walking his line but if you drive to your sets its the simplest most effective way I have found.
