I live in a rural area and ride two lane roads through forest. One of my biggest worries is hitting a deer. So far I've only had close calls and no strikes.
I have some riding buddies who swear by deer whistles, but I know of no scientific evidence that they work, and in fact I can't imagine how you would design a test to find out how effective they are. I have installed a pair (they come in pairs) on my bike because they are cheap and MIGHT work......certainly they make more sense than those little bells that some bikers attach to their bikes.
If anybody has any real data on these I would love to hear it.
