Pronghorns?

I believe the guy in the truck said they were "deers".

Yeah, but I think they are pronghorn antelope.  I've never seen that many in together before.

You are both such deers. @Sanguine  @Ghost Bear

There was a herd of those critters out and about in my farm boy days--around 300--in that bunch.

If I use the word pronghorn around my wife she thinks it is an invite.

You're a bit of a deer yourself.  An odd one, but a deer nonetheless.

Yup, pronghorns.

And, interestingly, their closest living relative is actually the giraffe, not deer.  They aren't true antelopes.

This is a pretty cool site that illustrates it:

In the Texas Hill Country we have herds of Axis deer and Blackbuck Antelope who have escaped from the hunting ranches. I've heard that Texas has a bigger population of these critters than India, their native habitat.

@Sanguine
The herd comes through every once in a while, sometimes right past the front porch but usually down on a ledge. I think they are visiting the water guzzler we have for the critters. Saw the herd this afternoon along with a big flock of about 30 wild turkeys.

Neat!

Looks like they were introduced to Texas around 1932: http://www.nsrl.ttu.edu/tmot1/cervaxis.htm

Cute little fella. 

The only ones I've ever seen were laying in the middle of the road with their little paws crossed on their chests...after being hit by passing cars.  I wasn't sure what they looked like alive.
