Not being funny, you could find someone to shoot the deer for free and get a freezer full of venison as part of the deal? In South Oxfordshire it'll be fallow deer and maybe roe deer. You never shoot all the fallow deer, but they soon get the message and browsing is reduced if you shoot a few.  Is the field safe to shoot in?  Are there safe backstops or the ability to put up a high seat and not to many neighbors around that would complain.  Not that many people notice a moderated rifle shot at 5am in the morning.

Or just put in stock fencing with plain wire on the top, I just let the deer come and go as they please.

 

Post spacing a little closer to give a bit of extra support, but the deer just jump in and out.

Thanks for the numbers. Gives me a bit of a idea. I was budgeting £15-20 a metre ex so not wildly off. 

 

It is a nursery area for young trees I'm growing in pots so not too keen on letting the deer come and go as please - it's basically an all you can eat buffet.

 

It is a straight, clear, level run. I've run the seppi over all the fence lines so nothing but open ground.
