Unless your going for the basket method mate you don't need to buy poles, cut some straight privet or hazel as thick as your finger and as long as you want. I'd use 5 on the net. If you want it as a quick set you won't need end pins. There's a few online suppliers who sell poles and pins whichever you decide on. Apparently golf course flags are quite good for quickset poles

ill give you a pair of end pins for postage money.. there 5 inch ring but thats a good thing if your new to longnetting as the net wont go over the ring and mess it up for you.they will need paint. i would use 7 pegs if your traditional netting, but we all do it different

 

let me know by p.m. if you want them
