there used to be a comaont in my town that you could get "fly". not sure what the name really is. "quilt batting, sounds like it may be the stuff.
i could get 1000lbs on the truck for free!
the local archery club would stuff all the bitt targets with it, it lasted so long, id just as well say forever!! ya just had to fluff it up every spring of so..

The plastic feed sacks are even better because they are water resistant. The bags have strings in the material to make them strong(rip stop)
The burlap is in the lawn care department for landscape use.

I see your from Wyoming, go out to a Ranch and get some net wrap they take off of round bales, Its better than anything I,ve tried yet, and it is an endless supply.

Go to your local furniture outlet.  Ask them for a couple of the discarded plastic wraps off of sofas and chairs.  They may ask you to pull around to the dumpster to get them.

Cheap.  Last forever (I'm going on eight years with mine), and they don't end up in a landfill.
