And then deer would become endangered species and the Government would
prohibit anyone from hunting them.

Just as thought.

Hope to see you'll Thurdday evening.

I wonder what the legality would be of mounting driving lights in such a 
manner as to be turned towards the right side of the road, thus helping to 
illuminate that side of the road.  Or mount them such that one is turned 
towards the left side and one towards the right side.  You would only use 
them when there is no oncoming traffic.  It would surely help to be able to 
see the sides of the road better.

Also helpful would be to make it mandatory that each resident take 5 deer 
each year, preferably all Does.  If you think about it, each 5 Does you kill

would eliminate approx 13 deer for the next year (5 Does, and 8 babies).  At

5 Does per resident it wouldn't take too many years to decimate the 
whitetail population thus limiting the number available to commit suicide 
against the side of vehicles, and secondly ensuring that Axis deer flourish.

There is no comparison between the quality of Axis meat and whitetail meat.

Fred:

Thanks for the informative posting.

We tell folks who move here that there are two groups of people in the Hill
Country: those who have hit a deer, and those that will.

Everyone in the Gaudier family (four of us) has hit a deer. We live 12 miles
south of Kerrville and see lots of deer on the roads. Most recent collision
was shortly after Christmas where a whitetail went after my F150 and lost.
That's the second one the F150 has taken out with only minor damage to the
truck. I think Ford must build their trucks with deer in mind - this last
collision was on the front bumper at 60 mph and I only lost a small
replaceable rubber bumper guard. All our collisions have been at night. We
watch for them constantly, but they are quite adept at springing out of the
brush alongside the road directly in front of your vehicle leaving you no
opportunity to slow down or avoid the collision.

One thing I've taught my kids to NOT do is jerk the wheel when collision is
unavoidable - that can send you off the road or into oncoming traffic.

73,

Dale - K4DG

Anyone living in an area where there are a lot of deer or other large wild
life need to watch this.  Here in the Texas Hill country its not if you hit
a deer, but when.
