DEER!!! DO Whistles Work?
 

I ride to work most days and have been seeing more deer because it is getting to be that time of year. Do the Deer Whistles you see in JP Cycle or anywhere else actually work? :icon_eek:

I have worked many deer/auto crashes where the vehicle had a deer whistle. I have hit a deer on a motorcycle equipped with a deer whistle. In my experience, the answer is "No".

Don't waste ur money.

They DO work, but in the opposite direction. If a deer is crossing in front of you, and the whistle gets their attention, they will STOP in the road and watch as you hit them.

Don't dare put em on.

NO they do not I live in deer country Wisconsin State and many others have proven over and over they do nothing.
Neither do loud pipes. Speed and tine of day/night you chose to drive are biggest factors

I have them on my bike and I still couldn't tell ya if they work or not :)

NO!!!!!!!!!!! Had them on my Peterbuilt and still hit one. Stupid thing ran right into me!

From my experience, they work great... they scare every deer out of the ditch to run right in front of you. The only 2 deer I have ever hit was when I had a deer whistle on my truck...

My Rineharts/Rivco air horns do :icon_beerchug:

I've heard some say they do and others say they don't. Those that say they do were talking about the electric ones not the plastic ones that need to have air pushed through at a certain speed.
