Finally, so far this is working.  I have tried everything from planting herbs, buying a sound deterrent (here on Amazon)  to spraying a mixture of soap and tobasco (recommendation of our extension office).  None has worked.  There is no such thing as "deer proof" landscaping shrubs or plants.  By February I sill know for sure.  All my shrubs wer  completely stripped of all their leaves.  We actually lost 5 to the grazing deer.  There is plenty of foliage elsewhere on the  property, but they choose to eat the bushes.  I will update later in the season.  So far, we have some new growth and the shrubs are doing well.
