Do you know what type and gauge of wire braid they attached to the ground stakes - and how far down the ground stakes were driven?

I also have lightning rods and am not worried by lightning anymore. We had one strike no more than 30 yards from the house - onto the fairway of the golf course. Simaltaneous flash and thunder! Herbie, the Shiu-tsu, scrambled into Mrs. Trap's lap and would not move.
