So, we hit a deer....
Only four of us went up to the game this week. Took the van of a friend of ours who was unable to go. Dad was driving, I was in the passenger seat, and two friends in the back. I was resting my eyes, when someone in the back yelled, "DEER!" I opened my eyes just in time to think, "Oh my god!" It was big. We're guessing it was an eight pointer. When we went back to get pictures, we noticed that the rack must have been ripped off its head. It managed to split the radiator.
Hit it between Clinton and Harrisonville. Had it towed to Clinton, and a friend of ours (owner of the van who couldn't go to the game) came and got us. Pics to follow.... Last edited by luv; 11-22-2009 at 10:49 AM.. |

I got this picture from a friend who runs a wrecker. Deer strike on the interstate.
Good thing papasmurf is a capable driver; in the last week, I've heard of two incidents where folks swerved to miss a deer and rolled their vehicles. Last edited by Delano; 11-22-2009 at 10:36 AM.. |

Yeah. We were going about 80, and dad figured we had nowhere to go. He just held onto the wheel let off the gas, and ran him over. Things could have been a lot worse. If someone would have had to pee when we passed through Lowery City, if we had hit a light red passing through Clinton, etc. Oh well, we're all okay, so we'll be able to talk about it later. We figure after 3 or 4 years, it will have been a 20 point buck charging at us...lol. |

Glad you all are OK, and what Delano said...pops did the right thing. Hell it looks like that big ol' American-made tank barely felt it.
