I wouldn't over-think it...I had 2 deer bust me this fall bow hunting--ran out there snorting and spitting and everything else.

Two nights later they were back. I shot one of them.

Not kidding.

I might consider having a conversation with the deer in a very loud voice: "Hey, deer! Hey, a******! Yeah, you. I'm leaving now but I'll be back in two days, same time, same station. Then I'll put a bullet in one of your asses. Until then, enjoy. I'm out!"
