Lol. Did either of those posts even move an inch?
That is one job I just don't enjoy. But it is good once you get a good pen finished

First video she got it in about it about a foot and I finished the last 6". I never asked her to help either. Id drive in 4 or 5 and go back to put on the wire clips and she would start on the next one. She wasnt fast, but wasnt afraid to work and was a good sport with the video. Think Im going to hang on to her

That's a good woman.
Wouldn't catch mi esposa out there doing that. She can cook, though.

She's a keeper. We should team up on a lease. Mine is just like her. They'd do all the work.

She had gloves the first day. Wasnt expecting to drive any the second day but came across a random T-Post and needed to get my camera further from pen.
I wish i had some secret training program that I could get rich off of, but I honestly just got lucky. Turns out, shes just like her mom and a hard worker.
Looks like her weekends are booked up through hunting season. I just hope she takes it well when I let her know.
I'm willing to share labor for west texas ducks.

Those videos are great, especially since the posts weren't going anywhere! Def a keeper! For years and years we've been doing the same thing - manually driving the posts in until this year we got a gas powered T Post driver. It drove it in straighter and stronger than a manual driver, and only took less 20 seconds per post. We are in a sandy area so it went in like butter but we had the entire pin completed in an hour or so without feeling sore or exhausted. We tried it in a rocky area and it still worked great, took a little longer. Hog Panels to keep the destructive annoying pigs out. 1 T-Post ever 8 feet.
