I was tempted, although my neighbours are excellent, I don't think they would have been very understanding about me popping off Bambi so close to their homes,LOL. KD

Thats why they call it a "Hunting Knife" :D

I guess you'll see this deer more often once the apple tree fruits again.

My dad's a vegetarian, he lost a 1/8 acre bean garden to deer. He talked to his neighbour about getting the beans back. The neigbour is a good shot.:shotgun:

I wouldn't mind a doe, try having to deal with a 1200lb bull moose constantly eating the flowers around the house or getting into the green house! Funny, but a .177cal pellet gun will move a moose along right smart!:)

My Mum in Penticton was having similar problems with Mule Deer in her back yard and garden. On one of my last visits I took along a fairly potent slingshot and some small ball bearings. I picked on what appeared to be the oldest and lead Doe. You'd be suprised how high a Deer can jump when 'gut shot' with that combo and after a couple similar sessions, how long they stayed away for. Obviously there was some benefit to my 'experience' as a juvenile delinquent.:D
