thanks bud I was raise on a farm in Sask Canada born in 1948 didn,t think I would every watch something like this on you tube LOL thanks for your time

My Dad raised me hunting and fishing….. included in our gear, was a fence repair “kit”…. Often times I learned more about fencing than hunting or fishing….. one of the splicing techniques you used was one my Dad taught me…. Good Memories!

I knew how to splice wire, but that is a neat idea you have there to close a fence gap/gate when it is tight! I always seem to learn something from your videos. And they are entertaining too! Thanks

Three for the price of one... thanks brother. That gate catch is awesome, proving the adage that simplicity is divinity.

When you mentioned to use old wire for mending barbed wire it immediately reminded me of Matt 9:14-17. "Don't put new wine in old skins". Also, thanks for the tip because we are going to have to cut a fence soon and splice it back later. This will help a lot.

I sure wish you'd been around in my younger farming days... I could have saved myself a lot of work knowing what I've learned from your videos. Never had a fence stretcher till recently. Don't work the farm anymore but just had to have a stretcher... I couldn't help myself.. "fencing pliars"... Still have one! They're not just for fencing anymore! A great multi tool! Thanks

I've been using the loop method for 40 years, but next time I will use your y method. Thanks for taking the time to make this video, Russ

Cause it's already been stretched. ;) words of wisdom!! Thank you, another tool, in my pocket. US lady here. -)

This really helped me fix my messed up barbed wire without spending a ton on splice kits. Thank you

THANK YOU! Perfect! Just what I was looking for to fix an old fence.

What an awesome job!!! Nice to learn fencing tricks. Thank you.

I use the Y splice. Good tip on using older barbed wire for repairs. Makes perfect sense.

Old Ranching tricks are fading away as old ranchers fade away... keep it up

Thx for sharing your knowledge in a clear and concise video. Now I know how to fix my broken fence. Excellent!

I came here and found several of your fencing videos very helpful!! Saved me some frustration and money

Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to create this video. I retired and moved from the city to the country. When I say country, I mean, my neighbors are cows. I had to replace 125' feet of fence and did NOT know how to splice the wire. Now I KNOW! Thanks again.

That was really informative! Thank you!

Thanks again Luke for the great tips on fixing fence . God Bless and have a good day

Excellent instructions - much appreciated!

Very helpful! Thanks for taking the time to put the video together.

Outstanding! Really appreciate your ingenuity and especially enjoy your practical tips.

I'm planning on putting up a fence this coming spring. Your videos are a great help. Taking all the notes I can.

Great info. My wife and I have watched this three times now; today we need to splice wire the deer tore up. Thanks for the tutorial.

Thank you luke, love the fencing videos!

Very nice presentaion. 68 years old and need some fence fixed. Thanks for the instruction. Now I'm ready to try it.

Thanks for the clear demonstrations!

Luke that is great video. I learned the y method years ago when and older Native American taught it to me when we were working on fence on a cow lease I had neat Riudoso, NM. I have never used anothe method to mend fence dice that day. Also on the wire gate tool....I learned that one years ago myself when I was working down on South Texas as a Border Patrol Agent. Those tools were on all the wire gates down there and dam they were useful!!! I fabricate my own and use them on my ranch in NM. This is great info keep up the great videos.

Luke is a good Christian brother. I learn a lot by watching his videos and, when I do, I feel like I am out working in the field with an old friend.

Fantastic! I've been using the loop method for my barbed wire and the second method you showed for my high tensile hot wire. Tomorrow I plan on trying out your split wire splice. Thanks for the video and God bless.

What I like about your videos is you don’t have music, much better if you are talking. Your the first person that said what they are making. Wow your land just goes on for ever. Joe in Dunedin,Florida. City boy here.

Thanks for a great summary on how to splice barbed wire fences.

Thanks so much this is my third time watching this one I’ve been watching for about 4 months I love your show you’re a very likable person and so is your family I will be using your tricks and all your teaching and suggestions I just got 5 acres with 2 horses

I've used the loop method on my fence. Thank you for showing me some new techniques.

Thanks for the up close clear video!

Thank you for the video. I'll be fixing my first fence soon and this was very helpful.

A thousand.. maybe 2 thousand watch this in a couple of days... lol 76k now. Thanks for the info we're putting up our first barb wire fence and your tips/teaching has helped tremendously!

This some neat splices. I've only used the loop method. I will have to try them! God Bless you and your family Luke!

I liked the splicing methods clearly explained and demo'd. Thanks.

I enjoyed watching. Informative. Thank you for sharing the video clip. God bless.

This is a great tip. I fence around an oat patch for deer and trees and limbs and cows are a constant problem. Old fence to new fence to kinked and really screwed up fence, etc. I'll be using this soon. Thank you!

Thank you, Luke. I have been looking for a better way to splice barbed wire fencing here in Texas. Great job!

Thank you! We had 20-30 trees fall in the recent wind storms that hit Montana. We lost 5 sections of the fence from trees that fell through all 4 wires and 1 gate post + section. My FIL did the repairs until he passed 2 years ago. So my MIL is doing them now. I really want to learn how, so I can help. Your videos have been great! Thank you!

for a new property owner, amazing advice and i'm excited to go fencing!!

I greatly appreciate that video we just bought our 42 acres and are getting ready to fence it thank you and God bless you

This is great information for rookie land owners no matter what size property. I’ve used all these methods and will confirm his advise is sound.

Thanks for such good clear videos!

I wish could attach a picture to show you :). I had to splice and join the cuts on 4 strands of bar wire today and your instructional video was so helpful! Thank you!

Great video very helpful. Getting ready to repair some fencing.

we love you Luke. You're the kind of guy I'd hang out with. Keep up the good life.

Great video, Love the spiritual aspect!

Great video watched it in the pasture! It worked great!

Tried the 2Y method on a new 5 strand fence and its now my favourite way to splice barbed wire-it takes quite the pull! We got some 65+ year old barbed wire boundary fences and the loop method works great for the brittle wire. Much thanks for the tips.

Thanks Luke I always enjoy your videos and scriptures! Good info. God Bless!!

Best repair vid so far.

Thanks so much for all your time and effort and expertise in helping us wanna be’s learn to fix fence and so many other ranching, farming, homesteading needed skills. Your professional wisdom is so very much appreciated. Always learning from your channel and increasing new skills. Much appreciate all your generous labors of love. Mucho Gracias

Luke, just watched this again. great way to splice barbed wire. My father in law always kept any pieces he took down or replaced, had a huge pile of repair supplies .

Thanks Luke. I am learning the most useful, practical things from you that one just can't learn anywhere else. I've always used the loop method but in the future will be using the Y method as it will result in a superior mend. Thanks to you I've got the best shoe/boot laces available (para cord), the best stud finder available and a really neat screw driver. I am so much better fixin and mending things now and you are one of the main reasons. What I appreciate the most is that you teach independence and self reliance!! I really love your KZfaq channel and the Godly man that you are. Keep them comin and "Happy Trails", Mike

Great Video!!!! I’m going around my place fixing fences and will start using the Y method that’s a great trick. Thanks and Stay Safe!

Enjoyed the refresher course!

Thank you for this!!!!! God bless you my friend. We broke NEW fence wire yesterday.....TWICE! Stretching over our terraced oklahoma hillsides is a tricky proposition. Keep up the great work here!

Thank you for the fencing videos. Will use your advise for a little different application but the basics are really helpful. All the best to you and your family.

Good stuff, and great advice!

Really all the knots you need for barbed wire I agree. I too now use your staple trick, and in a short time that has proved to be a good time saver. Also got one of those heavy duty plastic nylon boxes to keep all my fencing gear in now I just throw the whole box in the pickup and go everything in there except post and barbed wire. Always looking forward to another video from you Luke and savoring the last one. Please take care.

Thanks for the videos. I like the tips and tricks!

Loved it! Back to basics. Appreciate the Christian friendly!

The clean content is appreciated. The tips are pretty good too.

Love your videos. I learned to fence many years ago but I still learn new ideas from you.

Thanks for making it look easy! Now to go out and repair some fence! God bless! 🙏

Great instructional video. Thanks for taking the time to share this with us.

Great video! Now, I'm gonna go fix my fence. Thank you!

Awesome job explaining the three ways I knew the two but not the Y. Thanks again. Ler

That gate opener is slick. Great video.

I used your Y method today for an H post tension wire. Looks so much cleaner then what I normally do and held beautiful. I plan to use it more often with fence breaks. THANK You. BIG Thumbs up.

Real good information for us beginners. I’m glad I found your channel. I’ve got a lot of fence to fix up and this gave me so good tips. Appreciate you sir.

Awesome video. Thank you for the information.

Yep great video thank you for sharing ur wisdom and ideas !

Woww!! Thank you for these awesome fence wire fixing methods , surefire to work everytime. I'm in a job where I do a lot of fence repairs in wire fences, hard work and satisfying but I've really been enjoying it and your expert knowledge and advice is a great help and a Godsend, thank you Sir.

Luke, you and these videos are every day proof that you can learn something every day. I been fixing fence all my life and today was the first time I ve seen a y method splice. Its obviously superior to what I been doing but never thought of doing it. I recently learned about a tool called the texas fencing tool. It is great for taking a little slack out without restreching the whole line. If you get a chance KZfaq it. I think they might be over priced for what they are ,but they're slick.

that wire gate shutter is amazing i will definitely be building a bunch of those thanks for showing that!!

Brilliantly done!!!

I have to do some fence mending this week, plan on using some of you tips. Thanks for the instruction. Tommy

I was looking for that trick! Thank you,i can now mend my fence..

Good information !Enjoy your videos,thanks...

Great video, Very interesting love the Gate latch.

Great job brother! Thanks for all your help and keep the scriptures coming! :-)

I'm about the fence 7 wooded acres I recently purchased and have never done work like this before. You're videos are very helpful and I like the old fashioned feel of them. Thanks 👍

Thanks. Clear instructions and video.

Awesome to see how its done right!! Just learning the joys of fencing myself.

Love your fence repair videos as a long time rancher now retired but still Active with animals I still gotta keep up my fences Trump 2020 🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍 Trump Jr 2024 🇺🇸👍🇺🇸

Your information and quality family friendly content is very appreciated

Clear and simple methods. Thanks for sharing. really like it.

nice video!. the horse was like stop fooling around and give me my hay!!🤣

Thanks, I learned a lot! I've used barbed wire for years and never heard of the Y method.

Always dispose of old Barbwire and Barb‘s, do not throw on the ground. Cattle can eat them and get hardware disease. 1. 2Y marriage method 2. The western union method 3. The twin loop method. Thanks for watching I hope you find this information handy. Happy trails Luke

Awesome, Thankyou for sharing & especially the Bible verse at the end , I have a broken barb wire I need to fix , now I know how to do it the correct way , may God Bless

Great video - thank you!
