Abstract: A fence tensioning apparatus includes a central coaxially aligned support rod fixedly mounting an arcuate foot at a forward terminal end thereof, defining a concave recess to accomodate a fence post therewithin. A slider tube is slidably mounted about the support rod between the foot and a flange plate, including a bore to slidably receive an externally threaded rod therethrough. The externally threaded rod is coaxially parallel to the support rod extending rearwardly of a rear edge of the slider tube. The forward edge of the slider tube mounts a support loop thereon that pivotally mounts a clamp strap cooperative with the foot to grasp a fence web and direct the fence web to the fence post.
