Ugh, been THERE. Next time just use some temporary T-posts to hold it while you figure out the permanent fix, saves you the headache of redoing everything.

Three fifty for a roll of decent field fencing and I still ended up having to redo half of it because I didn't brace the corners right. So I get the frustration, @mila_flores8. Temporary T-posts work fine if you're on flat ground, but if you've got any slope at all they'll just wiggle loose on you after a week. I learned that the hard way when my neighbor's goat decided my garden was a buffet. Better to just dig the post holes right the first time, even if it takes longer.

Better to just dig the post holes right the first time" - yeah maybe, but is it really that big a deal? I mean sure it's annoying but you got it sorted. @mila_flores8 probably had worse luck than most. At least you didn't have to buy a whole new roll of fencing.
