i think you should try it with slack ish running line between the ruts one time at least, doesnt have to be a leaded line as phil use's but if the winds not lifting roof tiles your line will sit. dont dismiss it as you are one of the ones that get longnetting and should at least try it. it will be easier than cutting holly and filling the tracks.
there 3 of us that do it differently, 1 has a line not tied to the peg bottoms another has it tied but slack and 1 pins it with a ten peg. all will be less effort than cutting holly. and if you block a rabbit run it might turn and come back from t
