Gamekeepers often use a combination of wire netting and plastic Jumbo fencing to make release pens. To construct the release pen fence you will need an overall height of about 7 ft. Wire Netting is always used on the bottom to help keep out vermin.
This plastic mesh netting is a high strength mesh structure which has been designed to provide an effective deer control barrier at a cost effective price.
Jumbo Release Pen Netting (also called Heavy Game Net) is a durable, UV-stabilised plastic mesh, typically weighing 80 g/m² with ~50 mm (2″) mesh openings. It’s significantly lighter, easier to handle, and less visible than galvanised wire, yet exceptionally strong—designed specifically for building release pens.
Collins Nets stocks Jumbo Release Pen Netting in three standard sizes:
4 ft × 100 m
5 ft × 100 m
6 ft × 100 m (also commonly used for deer fencing)
Gameflex Release Pen Netting is similar to Jumbo but features smaller mesh openings (~25 mm × 18 mm or 1″ × ¾”), making it ideal for containing smaller game or enhancing predator exclusion.
Lightweight & easy to handle: easier to erect large structures.
Less visible: blends into the environment better.
Rust-free: made from UV-stabilised polypropylene, no corrosion risk.
No—plastic alone is vulnerable to rats and burrowers. Always pair with 25–31 mm galvanised wire mesh at the base to prevent chewing and entry from beneath.
Designed for outdoor use, Jumbo/Gameflex netting is UV-stabilised and durable—suitable for full-season deployments, especially on release pens and rearing enclosures.
