I totally enclosed my fields with plastic deer fencing from Hoover Fence. I used 8' T-posts and a coated steel wire and hung the fencing like a curtain using zip ties. Then I used ground stables to secure the bottom of the fence to the ground pulling the bottom of the fence away from the top wire to give the fence a 3 dimensional appearance which was supposed to ward off deer. This kept the deer away for a few weeks until they got brave and just started jumping through it. Since then I have attached an electric tape to the outside of my deer fencing and use an 11,000 volt fencer to deter the deer. After I put up the electric fence and dabbed peanut butter on it about every 30', the deer have changed their mind about coming directly through my fields.
