Yep the dear are pretty big and a big problem .. it is also hard to grow flowers or trees because they eat them all
Some of the neighbors have even put cages around their trees to keep the dear away
About 10 years ago, we had an overage of Deer. They ate everything including 50 of my wife's 51 roses. Many roses in their prime, of about 10 years of age. When deer eat off the buds and you don't lop 5 to 6 inches below on the stem where the deer ate the buds, the rose will probably die.
My wife lost 50 roses, and we moved her one surviving trophy rose up on the deck by our door to keep the deer away.
We came back from a dinner party. A few minutes later our sensor lights came on. She was in the MBR, and I heard her cussing and yelling. A minute later she was walking by me with my 357 cursing the deer heading for the patio door.
I talked her out of shooting my 357 in town and waking up half of the town. I took a pellet gun as she slid the door open and popped the deer's butt. It made a world's record leap off the deck into and over the bushes about 15 feet away.
We had a bunch of friends who hunted deer with bows and arrows come over to pop these critters during bow season. They got 3 including the one I popped with the pellet gun. We got the back strap and it was great, should have been with a pure rose bud diet.
Our neighbors went ballistic and turned the guys into the cops who said that it was legal as they had licenses and valid archery tags. Two neighbors are still mad at me.
