    Hey all. Im fairly new to food plots. I'm wanting to put dual perimeter fencing around a couple plots. Any suggestions on where to purchase and what my setup should be?? Any tips about it in general are appreciated...

    I have a plot that is a little bigger than a 1/4 acre that I fence in, I use 8' fence posts and double up plastic snow fence using zip ties.

    Youve used this before and had success? How much did you spend on the fencing for 1/4 acre?

    The post were free the 4' snow fence is $36 for a 100' roll I think I have 8 rolls. It does keep them out and off the plot.

    You can usually get away with going 6' high if you angle your posts out. The deer get to close to the fence and then realize they can't jump over it from that angle. Snow fencing is about the least expensive option that I have found.
