In my experience lots of people over look the country that close to roads. Not sure of your locale, but I have seen these "road bucks" for lack of a better term, feel fairly comfortable around commotion. If ya booger him up, he may be back in there a few days later. I say DO IT..
as to the wounded deer crossing the road, my first deer I ever shot ran across a gravel road and almost got hit by a truck! As if I wasnt already shaken up enough! lol
