Headed out at zero dark thirty to fish for the day in Wyoming and then meet the wife and girls at the family house in the hills for the weekend, about 45 minutes from home I blasted a deer at 75 mph, totally pissed, nursed my ride home with a blown radiator, crappy start!

Damn... At least you're ok. Those suckers can mess you up if you hit 'em right.

That sucks Mike. Were you able to salvage any of the meat at least?

Didn't see where it went, I am sure it's on the side of the road now, I'll be heading back that way a little later and see.

Dave128 · 07-02-2015, 09:12 AM

That sucks. Glad you're OK.

czerbe · 07-02-2015, 09:18 AM

Ouch... stay safe brother

Remo · 07-02-2015, 09:44 AM

Nature has a way of getting even, this was payback for all the squirrels and bunnies!

pnoon · 07-02-2015, 09:47 AM

Sorry to hear, Mike.
I'm happy your o.k. though.

Remo · 07-02-2015, 09:49 AM

Thanks all, wife was a bit upset that I could have been hurt, told her that's why we don't drive Prius's

...have a call into the insurance, now gotta get all my stuff and out get it in my wife's ride and get outta town

irratebass · 07-02-2015, 09:51 AM

Sorry your car got beat up, glad you are ok & that you have 2nd plan in motion, have a safe & fun 4th

AdamJoshua · 07-02-2015, 09:53 AM

Glad you're okay, Mike, of course it wasn't a great start to the 4th for the deer either.

Nope, deer heaven

Only $100 deductible, off to the dealership for a fix

icehog3 · 07-02-2015, 11:10 AM

Glad you're OK, Mike. Had a motorcyclist here killed by a deer last week, so it could have been much, much worse. Hope you're back on the road without too much delay.

dijit · 07-02-2015, 11:14 AM

Glad your ok. Good thing you drive a light armored car!

Ya, deer and bikes don't mix.

markem · 07-02-2015, 12:12 PM

Glad you are okay, Mike. Those hooved rats are sneaky, I tell ya.

CRIMPS · 07-02-2015, 12:32 PM

Ack! That's the worst. Happy to hear it didn't go through the windshield.

07-02-2015, 11:22 PM

Glad you weren't hurt. Same for your fishing gear...now THAT would have really sucked!
