I hope the deer keep not causing you issues. When my wife and I first moved here I tried to work with the deer. The result was a lot of my plants eaten to the ground and others killed by rubbing. Overtime, I just went with the fence and the result has been that my plants just took off. But the areas the deer hit the hardest are still about a year behind the rest..

Very interesting about the coyotes--I made sure they could come into my land despite my deer fence in order to keep the rodent population from getting to big.

Thanks for sharing!
