quick to set up. Bent a few in the dry ground but they were easy to straighten using the 4 wheeler step as a lever. Nice big pigtail makes running the rope easy. I used 2 to 3 pigs per metal post and spaced them all at 30 foot intervals.I just ran a single rope for cattle/horses. Worked great

These posts are great for the money. The "pigtail" was bigger than I expected, which made inserting the Intellatwine a snap. Our ground is VERY hard in the summer and getting them in the ground all the way is next to impossible. Nonetheless, they have proven to stay upright in the ground even if not full sunk in. A few posts bent slightly in our attempts to step them in, which is the reason for the four stars. Still, for what they are (lightweight, temporary posts), and a price that can't be beat, they are pretty good posts. I expect that they'll hold up well for several years. If your ground isn't hard as a rock like ours, I'm sure you'll be very happy with these posts.
