In my area of Michigan you have to use a shotgun for deer. I've never used more than 3 rounds to bring one down though.

My sister is addicted to Cabela's big hunt, and my brother has a hilarious game where the deer hunt the men and use calls like 'look, a new Z-71 with the keys in it'.

I didn't know it was an actual strip. Something I saw here a while ago and posted.

Do they have a link to any others?

That is one of the two most memorable Bloom County cartoons ever. I have been telling post-Bloom County people about it for many years. What a classic!

My 6 year old granddaughter called it the "Reindeer Game".

"You know, where you get to shoot the reindeer!"
