High velocity Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Have to pass this tip on to all who build hides using netting and poles. I went to the camping shop and bought some tent poles, the fibreglass ones that you thread a shock cord though and they fit inside each other they are 7.5ml in diameter and 5.5mtr long when all joind up. Together i found were too long so i left 2 out i have just put cammo duck tape around all each individual. i thread it through the camo and just use one hide pole to prop it up at the front and poke the ends of the flexible tent pole into the hedge at the back, then use tent pegs to anchor the netting. its all lightweight and even better cost me only £12.
