Rocks make it a challenge, bending t-posts back upright after they snake down through rocks.
I've seen the electric cord stuff, and I like the look of it.
If we get the panels for the front then one roll of the cord will be plenty to put up a 3 stand fence down the back, if I can get enough t posts in the ground. Right now the line of fence is at the corner of the barn on Harleys end, which makes Rocky's side a lot bigger. I use to have a line of fence from the other corner of the barn down the back when I had more horses. I had 3 strips of pasture back there. After the kids left I took one down because deer had broke it down anyway.
Most of the fence line down the back is just hooked to trees with insulators. I want to put posts in to make it nice and straight, and I want it from the middle of the barn so that both sides are about the same size.
And by next year I will have a new push weedeater so I can keep the weeds down and the grass will grow back. I want to seed and fertilize back there. It's a mess right now.

Some of the t-posts on our place had to be set up in a concrete-filled cinder blocks because there was nothing but solid rock in places. It's a pain! Speaking of driving t-posts and pain, I'm extremely leary about doing it now, ever since I knocked a hole in the top of my head with the t-post driver. Duh! It was kinda stupid!
