[TowerTalk] Radials vs. cows

[Mike Fahmie]

 I can imagine the wire looping a cows foot and as she wandered the pasture, a trail of antennas, coax, and a few radios following behind.

 I’m about to put in a radial field but the area is infested with Angus. Terrain is in its natural state, never graded, planted or anything, just coarse grass and weeds and pretty rocky and uneven. I was hoping to use lawn staples (lots of them) as they seem to have a very good grip in this soil. 

My concern is that the cows will snag the wires or pull them up while grazing. Then I’m stuck trying to shallow-bury everything... ugh.  Anyone have any experience or advice on cows vs. radials?
