Q: Why should I opt for a high tensile fence instead of a barbed wire
fence?

A: High tensile fencing is much safer than barbed wire for short-haired animals, especially horses. They will receive a shock form the electric fence instead of having sores and injuries associated with barbed wire fences.

A high tensile fence is also very cost-effective since it doesn't require nearly as many fence posts as a barbed wire fence does.
