Keep deer out of a small garden spot. Is it going to take electric fence or what?

I got a late start. Have the ground prepped... waiting on some rain this weekend. I have a couple of patches ready to go, figure to bait a field a hundred or so yards from the main garden spot with a pea patch. I was hoping that the critters would nail that spot and leave the tomatoes, corn, and watermelons alone. And I don't mind 'sharing' some. If half of it makes, there will be plenty. I just don't want them to mow it down to the ground.

Advice needed, and I know y'all have plenty to dish out. Any more new techniques out there that work?

You gonna pull them pistols, or whistle Dixie?
