1. Deer tend to hang out in little clearings while eating. Little
clearings like the right of way clearing 25 or 50 feet on each side of
an electricity pylon.
2. Deer are easier to shoot when their silhouette is seen at or near
the top of a ridge, especially if they are in a clearing as well.
Combine #1 and #2, it is logical that even without "bubbas" the
deer/fiber coincidence level would be high.
