"A fence is only as strong as it's corners" a well known fact
I learned from a local farmer some 30 years ago.
Subsidiary . . . Do It Homestead Inc.
Farmers and ranchers have for years used long (12') railroad ties, trees, 6 or 8" well casing, or 3" pipe buried in concrete in order to have their corners and fence ends strong so that their line fences would not pull the ends out.
This pictures shows how even a Rail Road tie will lean even though it is in the ground 5 feet. You see in time + pull on the fence and wet ground will force it to move.
Here we see how a fence has moved due to line stress and on the right the farmer has tried to upright it using another T post and a little wire.
As you will note above one cross brace has fallen and the other one is about to do so.
Again here we have a deeply berried RR tie and it is leaning
