I am writing a fiction about a 7500 acre ranch. If the ranch is square, how much distance would it stretch in each direction. And how long would it take to ride around it on horseback to check the fences? I could use some detailed descriptions on fence mending, hay bailing, mineral licks, and all other ranch chores. Please help! I just started this book and am already stuck. Will someone please help me out? I am writing a fiction about a 7500 acre ranch.

Chain Grabs - or wire grippers an a come-along are another way to go. Or if you just have some sag - maybe a Daisy tensioner will work. Out our way I see lots of strainers on fencing to pick up the slack.
