Almost got me a bambi last friday. I live rural so I know all about corn fields etc. The road I go on to work at 5 am is generally a deer party before sun up and after sundown. I travel around 30 mph tops on this road and am looking to my right in the morning for deer. Seen one about 10 yards from the road. Actually, seen its eyes from my highbeam. Automatically rolled off throttle, touched the brake and downshifted. The deer got spooked and took off the other way back thru the field. Now if one didn't know about deer traffic on the road, he would have been riding about 50 to 60 mph and that deer may have tried to scoot across. Wouldn't have been pretty.
I've seen deer near this road almost every morning when I ride to work.
So, it pays to know the roads you travel frequently.
Lucky...
