Hey,Ree! I can see you're a practical Daniel Boone sort `a guy.Since I've joined P.eople E.ating T.asty A.nimals I've had a lot of venison.Never tried a chain though.Anything that can jump a 10 ft.high fence might be able to drag me screamin' and kickin' into the oncomin' traffic! I prefer something that BARKS here and BITES over there if you get my meaning.(Ruger Redhawk 44 Mag. does very nicely if you're pressed for time).And Rich, I can sympathize with you on those deer accidents.BEFORE I got those animal warning devices installed on all my vehicles,except `peds,I was hittin' deer right and left.Some people say those don't work.Well,all I've got to say is,I've never hit a deer in all the several hundred thousands of miles I've driven in vehicles WITH those devices.Not one!But I've hit every one of the seven deer I've hit WITHOUT those devices.They claim 85% effectiveness and I believe it.Just saw a deer hit on the way in to work.Poor guy's nice mini-van sustained heavy damage.I called the patrol for him.Deer was layin' in the median kickin',poor thing.Here in Ohio the Patrol will let you take the deer you've killed for food.At least it's not wasted,Ree!
