The heavier weight deer netting can now be purchased in eight foot by three hundred foot rolls (2.4 x 91m) from A. M. Leonard Co.. I got part of mine from them when they were selling it in the smaller rolls. DeerBusters.com sells similar netting in three weights as well as gate frames and other accessories if you're not into making your own. There are many other sources on the web now, carrying similar products. A Google advanced search on the exact phrase deer fence with net plugged into the "at least one word " blank will let you do price comparisons. Get the heaviest weight you can afford.
