The lower post is buried to a depth such that a spring element, interposed between the lower post and an upper post is positioned proximal, and preferably slightly above the ground surface. With the upper post coupled to the lower post via the spring element the upper post is free to flex about the spring element when acted upon by a force to preclude breakage of the post.
