With summer right around the corner, what is the toughest fly sheet you've found? My horses are out in a pasture with woods so they can get themselves in some wooly parts so I need something that doesn't snag easily because I don't want a shredded sheet a week after I buy it. I hate spending a small fortune on one not knowing if it'll hold up.

I only buy Kensington ones. They are UV protectant and just about snag proof. I had a horse catch the front on a gate and tear it up and they replaced it up to 75% of cost. It was so worth it to get another one. Mary L Curtis on facebook has the best prices I think.

I love the Horseware Rambo Protector Fly Sheets. They are super durable. I have a size 78" that is too big for my horse that I am interested in selling. In excellent condition, just back from being professionally cleaned and had new surcingle straps put on. PM me if interested.

SAXXON has held up well for my horses.. turned out 24/7 They are lighter weight than some of the others which I like as I hate to see the horses sweating when it gets 100 degrees here in OK. Seems when it's that hot the bugs are worse.
These have been less expensive than some of the name brands, but I think they got bought out by one of the big names and may now cost more.

Following this also..... Our new pasture has some woods also. I had great luck with the Kool Koat sheet with the detach a neck in a normal pasture situation it would almost last all summer, but don't know about the wooded situation.
