I have had so many close calls with Deer jumping out in front of many of my vehicles,and one with a friend's station wagon with several Deer to avoid.I'am talking of 10 or more times since 1969.One was so close i could have reached out my 68 Nova's window and grabed it by the horns,as it turned and ran along side of me until i slowed down.This was in Christmas,MI.Had these close calls from the U.P. to Jackson,MI.And never hit a Deer yet! Knock on wood,knock, knock.Am i lucky or is it i'am good? I have never had one close call here in Tennessee since i lived here four years this past week with Deer. But three times thus far i dang near hit two big milk Cows an one Steer on these winding Country roads.I have not even run over a Dog or Cat,or a rodent of anykind!Well maybe a mouse but who could tell?I had some close calls yes.I found a small bird in my grill one time.And thank the Lord above i never came close to hitting a child or pedestrian!

Last winter was so mild they were moving a lot down here in Pinckney. I also believe if you see one stay slow cause more are coming. I had 3 run in front of me last year so I slowed down nearly stopping for them, looked out the side window and one was coming straight for the passenger door. Had to hit the gas that time not to get hit.
