Unfortunately, deer are very common on the airport here. A couple of weeksago I was giving some instruction in a DiamondStar DA-40 and just as welanded 5 deer ran across the runway right in front of us. We were too fastto stop, but too slow to takeoff again. We miseed the last of the 5 by lessthan a foot. I now have a treestand up near the runway and spend a coupleof hours a day up in that stand with a compound bow. A friend got one lastweek with a crossbow, but I have not gotten a shot yet. Too many housesclose by to hunt with a gun.Jack PhillipsNX899JPSmith Mountain Lake, Virginia _____
