I have a 135’ OCF strung between Douglas firs at about 65 feet. In our common 
70+ mph winds the trees sway enough that my two old bowling balls used as 
weights go up and down 6 feet or more. I used to use 3# lead downrigger sinkers 
but that was not able to provide enough tension to keep wire taut.
