Looks nice but unless the corral runs are longer than I suspect they are, you'll find it quite tough to get and keep it tight. With Hi Tensile wire my experience is the longer the stretch the easier it is to maintain, because you get to utilize the "forgiveness" in the wire. I'm sure you can make it work but my guess is you'll want to give the strainers a click or two before using.....even then a calf can/will escape. Looks like your 3rd wire down in last pic is just exactly what I'm talking about. Like I said you can make it work but where as I was installing commercially I couldn't recommend that because I 'd never talk the farmer into tightening often enough therfore it wouldn't work . Do you have a pipe top rail the whole distance or just braces ? Very economical way to build tho. Great pics and have a safe harvest !
