Sambar Stag is very desirable for knife handles it is very dense with only a little pith on the inside.

Does your post imply you managed to hit a few also?

For me only white tail: Shot, skinned, ate. For me the eating part is the fun part.
My husband he is the same but add mule deer and elk to the list. He also tells about a special deer named Bambi he met once downtown but when she said she charges he took a pass on that!

I met a girl in Thailand by that name. She was quite dear.
White tail... aka vehiclulsus smashus makem say bad words... probably hit close to 20 through the years with everything from a Mack dump truck (turned the deer into mush) to my wife's new Buick which was totalled because it blew the airbags. A couple of times I have hit more than one at a time and even had them run into the side of the vehicle that I was driving.

whitetail population 1.4 million in the show-me state and growing
everything from tripping over them to jerky

I hunt and eat whitetail. Hit 1 with my 1 month old P/U, 2 with a tractor/trailer and 1 that ran across a wide open field so it could run into the side of said tractor leaving a hole in the door from antler. That spun him around and sent him running back from whence he came. I think that is a pretty low count for 45 years of T/T driving. Have seen and eaten Moose, Elk, Mule deer, Bison and Caribou. Have seen Key deer and petted a Reindeer. I have had goats milk several times and my bacon is sliced, not Canadian(yuck).
I've hunted and eaten Whitetail, Blacktail and Mule Deer as well as both Rocky Mtn. and Roosevelt Elk. Saw a few Moose but never had a chance to hunt one.
Never do that again. Worked for a guy, deer season would come and he would tell the girls in the office he was going out to commit Bambicide for the weekend.Elk....hunted but never saw one.
Caribou...hunted and ate,
Moose....hunted and ate.
Mule deer.....saw on drives to shooting range (out of season of course)

I think I met Bambi....she told me she was a witch.....wispered into my ear and I turned into a motel.
I have shot, processed, & eaten white tail deer. I also hit one with my truck back in '16 very shortly after I bought it new. I also enjoy watching them when given the chance.
Edited To Add: You wouldn't believe how mad my wife got when a deer ate the hydrangea bush I got her down all the way to the ground. I thought it would come back so I left it alone. A year or two later it was starting to get some size to it again & look a little pretty. It happened again. I gave up & got rid of it.

What did you get rid of the bush or the deer ??
The bush. I never saw the deer. It was coming through either when I was gone to work or at night. I could use a bow here but it would not be a good idea to shoot a deer appropriate firearm here. Too many houses, too close.
Goats milk or die of thirst....I go with die.

You had a guardian angel riding with you that time. One of my old riding buddies was moving along at pretty good clip, heading home on a backroad after work one evening on his bike when he hit one. Both he and the deer where dead when someone finally found them.

I was doing about 70 when it happened, never saw it till it was on the white stripe on the right side of the lane. Steep incline on that side of the road. Happened at dusk and I believed then and always will that the yard rats run at headlights. My head light hit it in the belly, cut him in half, gutted him and quartered the rear, I was over the front and on the road sliding. Very lucky
