Well i have had better luck than what i had this past weekend.
I was on my home saturday afternoon from visting my dadjust as dark fell. "My11yr son was with me at the time" . We had just turned west onto a county highway that would lead us back home.
We had not gone 1/8 mile when all i sawwas a blurr out of the corner of my left eye.
A11/2 old six ptrunning very fast jumpsover the other the other lain slamming into us.
I didn`t even have time to hit the breaks. We hit very hard! we were doing about 55-60mph
My son was shook up a little but thats all. I thank god no one was hurt.
Crazy thing is my son and i were talking about maby being able to see a deer before getting home(We did)
My truck 05f150 Nowi am going to need a lft ft door, hood, l left frt fender, mirror, grill..ect about 4 to 5 thousand dollars in damage.
I was going to go hunting sunday morning Oh-well there is always next week.
P.S Everyone be carefull this time of yr driving.

Sometimes there is nothing you can do..... How did the deer fare?

Be safe and good luck

I drilled a doe right before bowseason. I can around a turn doing about 50 she landed in the middle of the road and I got slowed to about 30 but I hit her in the rear head and snapped her back she was dead when I found her. My truck is an 04 f150 and it cost me 1800 to fix it. And I almost hit another doe in the same place 2 days ago. She was a hoss of a doe too around 90-100 lbs.

The trooper that that stopped to help us asked if it would be ok to donat it to feed the hungry?
I told him that i would be happy to do so. I am just glad that it would be put to good use.

A few years ago, I hit one (more like it hit me) when on my motorcycle. I was on a dark Wisconsin country road and it came dashing out from my left in a blink of an eye. Luckily for me, I didn't hit it head on. I hit the head with my left thigh and I had a nice football sized bruise for a while! I didn't spill the bike, but I got knocked of the seat a little and had a nice tank-slapper. The deer wasn't found on the road and we did not want to hand around that dark road with no shoulder very long.
