I built a lot of yard fence with 48 inch tall hog wire and a barb on top. Some times they rubbed through it, where I had a hot wire in front they still reached over it and rubber necked it down even when it was tight with posts 8 foot apart. For field or pasture fence it may be fine but it costs a lot more and a lot more work to put up. I have high tensile feedyard fence ten years old never been touched and it cost a fraction of what woven wire costs. Many of the big feedyards in eastern NE have used high tensile for many years with good results. After I started using ht I gave away whatever barb wire and woven wire I had on hand. I do put hot wires on old fences that are still good, but if I build new its ht. You just as well build the hot wire into the fence as add it on later. I've heard a lot of guys brag on their barb wire fence, but then they put a hot wire when they start reaching through. Just my experience. Lee
