Have you ever done it? How long is your run? Here are a couple links to get you started. I would rent the tools to dig the holes for the fence posts or hire that part of the job out. It is a great project, have fun with it!

John Garcia - Well first I would look at some D.I.Y. video to make sure I have all the tools needed. First make off where you want your fence in there is no fence there. Property line. Next mark off your post holes. Keep them under 8 feet that way you can use 2x4 studs for top , middle and bottom boards for fence board nailing. I like to use a 2x4x16' for my top rail (adds strength to the fence). Digging post holes. Holes should be at less two feet deep and about 6-8" round. These holes will require 2-3 bags or ready mix concrete (60 lb. bags) Most people mix the concrete, I suggest dry pack. This is adding the concrete dry (1/3 of the way) adding water in the hole just enough to wet. pack more concrete, (2/3 of the way) add a little more water, pack with a 2x4 board. Add more concrete to fill the hole and wet. Pack with 2x4 board. Align all your post with a string line. Your post will be sturdy in there hole and ready to be nail with the 2x4 rails. DRY PACK POST WILL NOT NEED ANY SUPPORT compared to wet ready mix poured into the holes which requires bracing!
Thank you very much for the info 😊
