I FOUND SOMETHING THAT REALLY WORKS AND GETS THE DEER'S ATTENTION!!!!
Today I was driving around Lake Winnebago in Northeast Wisconsin.
As I was coming uo to a deer farm - with about two dozen big A$$ bucks strolling around - each and every one of them looked over at me - even at 100 yards away.
"LOUD PIPES SAVE LIVES" Proof.

I live in some of the most heavily-populated deer country a feller could ask for. There's been a TON of research on deer whistles, and EVERY research study ah've seen that I'd trust far 'nuff ta toss says they're plain junk - period. This includes several State Wildlife offices AND several well-known universities. You'll always hear the folks what say "I have 'em and have NEVER hit a deer" - well, I've got some super-duty ones made for elephants, an' I've never hit one of them, neither!!!
One of my sisters had some high-dollar ones on her car. The deer missed both of 'em as he nailed her brand-new Lexus spot-on between 'em.[]

I live in Wi also and have fairly loud pipes. If you think for 1 second there going to save you your nuts. At my buddy's cabin in Mercer Wi, you actually have to stand up on some roads to look for Deer there so many that are in the road, side of the road and oh yeah he has loud pipes too. Pay attention or pay the price but if you think your pipes will work oh well

RE: Electronic Deer Alerts
Good advice to stay alert (we need more "lerts"), but if a deer's got your name on it, no amount of attention or fancy subsonic whistles is going to save your a$$...
The stupid animals just have no concept of mass and velocity and will run right out in front of you from places you wouldn't even think an animal that large could be hidden.
Ever since "Bambi" came out the bleeding hearts have been letting them run free no matter how many motorists they kill, while being oblivious to the fact that a good percentage are starving to death because there's so damn many of them.
Thin the herd. Take what you'd spend on a deer whistle and buy a deer license....

RE: Electronic Deer Alerts
First - I had the same experience as dchoran, which kinda puts the explanation msocko3, that it's blind luck to the test. Deer came out. I was coming one way, Blazer about to tag him from the other way. I've been there and the deer heard my pipes, looked me right in the eye, and ran from in front of the blazer into the woods. With all due respect with to those who think they don't help - saw it with my own eyes. I'd much rather have the deer hear me AND be alert. Pipes are like a horn, but always on so there's no reaction time lost. If loud noises doesn't get people and animals attention, feel free to rip that horn right off your bike, it's clearly adding weight for no reason.
Loud Pipes HELP to SAVE LIVES...
Oh, and the deer whistles - only buy them if you like the way they look cause they don't do crap....
