When I was a kid in the 50's I had a job putting glasses on chickens.  It's hard to find anyone today who believes me.

I believe you. Where did you live at the time? And did that help them from running into each other, or was that because some of them would J.O. only till they needed glasses? :smilep:

When I whistle for my deer, they all come running...

If it makes you feel better, sure go ahead and put it on.  Just don't be surprised when one runs across the road in front of you instead of away.  I live in heavy deer country and there's no way in HE&& you can predict what they'll do when they see you.  I've hit two with the cage that did what I didn't think they'd do. I've also lucked out many times and guessed right with my avoidance tactics.  Don't bet your life on those whistles.  The only one's that know if they work is the deer, and they aren't talkin. Chedrs and have a good year.  MD

I work on trains and we hit deer regularly. Hell we hit bears, elk even mountain lions on rare occasions. Now, trains ain't exactly quiet, whistle blowing, bell ringing, wheels screeching, 17,000 hp bellowing, headlight flashing, you get the picture.
I don't think a deer whistle will do any better than all that.

Deer are pretty stupid. Just like a lot of other wild animals. I always treat a deer as if they're going to jump out. Maybe I've been lucky, I've never actually hit one, but I've come close enough more than once. Almost nailed a moose, and close enough to a bison to know they smell kinda rough.

You would be surprised, though, how quiet an approaching train really is. About 15 years ago, 4 guys were having a pot party on the railroad tracks near here, and they never heard the train coming.

Also, when the gate comes down and the bells start ringing and the lights are flashing, people can't be bothered with stopping, they just go around the gate. Ever see what happens to any road going vehicle after an encounter with a 20 mph train? Yeah, it's really ugly.

My brother in law runs for U.P.. He says that SoCal is full of idiots at crossings.

Okay, my rant is over for now.

OK,
There are bird whistles
There are dog whistles
There are dolfin whistles
There are duck whistles
These are all to get the animal, etc to come to the whistler not run away.
Why would there be any difference with a deer whistles??? :hyst: :hyst:

Are there any whistles that could get the ol' lady over to give me a BJ?
Just a thought...

If the whistle makes the deer not stupid, buy it, if not, don't waste your money.

Yeah, we hit people too. It sucks. There are some that commit suicide by train.
