Jef Mallet and I both live in central Michigan where there are way too many deer. Car/deer accidents are a real problem, as I know too well. In Southern Michigan you need a shotgun for the reason sited above and hunting is a lot of sitting but then they have to drag the carcass out after field dressing it. Many heart attacks among older or out of shape hunters happen after the shot, especially if it’s not a clean kill and there’s snow to wade through as they track it.
I agree. New strips would be great.
