The kicker? The deer was about half a mile away from the NRA Headquarters.

I think your last sentence conflicts with your first sentence, friend

Oh, I don't know. It takes a smart deer to not be venison in that area, don'cha think?

Knowing where the NRA Headquarters is located, it is a smart deer that avoids becoming road kill. It is not an area where hunting is allowed. I have seen many deer in the area that are not smart enough to avoid being road kill.
