[QUOTE="callmefence, post: 1506189, member: 24947"] There's another way to handle this problem for folks opposed to the kicker brace. You go up a size or two on your post. Drive it good and deep. No move perpendicular and preferably to the inside of the turn and drive your dead man. Only drive to about 6" below ground level. Stop and saddle the top before you go in the ground. Now dig small trench 6" deep. Saddle one end of a piece of pipe the saddle goes to the post and the other end lays in the saddle of the dead man. You'll have to stand on your head to weld the part in the ground. But you want the pipe on top so it I'll never get a tire. Cover it up and your brace is underground. We mostly use this when we have to hang a gate off a dead post. Carry on [/QUOTE]
