Help: Deer are eating my ornamental vegetation

I live in a residental neighborhood that borders on a forest that has a deer population. At night they will come into my yard to graze. They will eat about 50% of the things I plant. I planted 3 oak leaf hydrangias about 10 mos. ago and the deer ate every one of their leaves. Well, now spring is here and my oak leaf hydrangias have come back with full leaves. So far the deer haven't touched them, but I know it is only a matter of time.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I keep those f*cking pests from eat all of thier leaves again? I would shoot them in miniute if I didn't have neighbors.
 
Buy some cheap ass bar soap at Sams Club, cut it up into little chunks and put it near all your flowers and such. Deer and soap dont mix. A friend of my familiy's who has apple orchards does that so the deer dont eat all the lower hanging apples. Works great.

Thanks Bob, I would have never thought of that; I'll give it a try. I was thinking about buing a compound bow and shooting those bastards without my neighbors knowing. Hell, I still may; that would be some good low fat protein; I'd bet the omega-3 ratio is good in venison.

I want half of the kill. You have to cut it up into edible portions; I don't know how. I live in FL.
