That right there, do what this guys says. I've seen this enough times. One comes out of nowhere, followed by one or more than one coming out of nowhere.

Seriously.....Snake oil. What is a deer supposed to think about a noise? When they come out with one that guarantees rational thought in a deer, let me know.
Yep. If the sound of a Harley doesn't scare the deer away, I'd like to know what people think a little extra high-pitched whistle is going to do.

My theory is that the problem with deer is that they don't drive - therefore, they don't understand that cars and motorcycles follow the road. All they know is that it is coming closer and they are equally likely to run in any direction.

Saw one last year run right into the drivers door of the car in front of me. Major damage and Bambi ran away. I just strap a venison cookbook on the front of my bike. They see that and run away.

Since I hit the deer a year ago December, I always ride with some deer bones in my saddle bags. Seems to be working as a warning so far.

Damn things are a menace in WV
only thing they are good for is stew

The Marietta Townies are getting there panties in a twist cause they have migrated into the town and are ruining the flowers.
The city council of HARRUMMPHS have come up with a very limited bow season at night so as not to upset the biddies that feed the forest rats
