Last night, my girlfriend and I were going over to a friend's house to spend some time with them. On the way there, a deer ran across the road in front of my truck. At first, I was like: "Oh look, a deer. How cute."

Then.... deer number two decided to test the rigidity of my truck's grille. I feel bad, but there wasn't anything I could do. It didn't make it...

I'm just glad that it wasn't a 30-point buck... otherwise, I would have had airbag for dinner.

Just kidding sarge shit happens.. A friend of mine hit a horse on the highway last year. Did the deer suffer at all or did it die right away? Any damage to your truck?
Glad you're ok

It didn't suffer for very long... I didn't see any damage to the front or underside of my truck. Skidplates come in quite handy (I know that's kinda sick, but it's true).

Thanks. I'm glad that we're ok, too. It freaked my girlfriend out. I didn't panic, but I didn't react the way I think I should have. If I would have swerved the way it came from, I would have missed it. But, there was a really deep ditch there, and my girlfriend was on that side of the truck. So, rather that send my truck into the ditch and risk injuring my girlfriend, Bambi had to go.

Yikes.. I think you reacted the right way. I'd definitely rather hit the deer than roll the car in the direction of my girlfriend (if I had one)

heh?

lol Matt, I'm sorry for the deer, but if there was nothing he could do then that's that. I was just making sure no other misfortune resulted from the incident. I'm glad the deer didn't suffer much

heh?

Personally, I'd have taken my chances with the girlfriend

how could you

but you wanna here something? too bad
i was in the car in atlanta, mom was driving, and a truck was carrying logs infront of us, well it dropped oneof the logs. so here we are on I-75 in the middle of atlanta, with a log in the road, there was swerving and the log got caught under some guys car, and caught on fire from the friction

another time, my mom wasnt paying attention, and there was a sudden stop in traffic, my dad was infront of us, and he slammed on the brake. my mom, alittle late hit hers. we didnt hit my dad, but time seemed to stop for me as my moms foot was on the brake and we were still gliding towards the truck.

oh and to keep on subject, my mom also hit a dear once, it was a baby

I like venison. There are easier ways to get it though.

Seriously, I'm glad the deer didn't suffer. Here in West Central Missouri, we have a problem with deer overpopulation. You can't drive down the roads or highways without having one jump out in front of you. A friend of mine was killed several years ago when he hit a deer while riding his motorcycle.

Did you scrape the deer off, and take it home for tea Sarge? That may seem a little cruel, but why waste that good food?

Bilbo has a good point. If you kill an animal, you should at least eat it.

I never liked the expression "it coulda been worse." Couldn't it always be worse?

"Well the nuclear war has destroyed everything on earth.. but it coulda been worse. At least the universe didn't collapse on itself."

I dunno, maybe I'm just weird

Well It's been a long time since I've posted and I just posted here so I could talk to my good friend Sarge...I think you should be blown away for hitting the poor deer ...and for never visiting me but don't worry I'll forgive you on both...since now you can write to me all the time...I finally have my own computer

Nope. It's out of season, so if I got pulled over for anything, I woulda got a seriously insane fine... and besides, I don't like the thought of decomposing carcasses in my truck. It was bad enough that I had to pull it out of the middle of the road.

Randude-
Yeah, venison is pretty good. And there are easier ways to get it, but I think that a 1 1/2 ton pickup truck can be just as effective as a gun...

Dawg-
Heh... no I didn't run over it again and again. That's sick, bro.

Go figure...

A couple days after I wipe out Bambi, I get a new set of tires for my truck. With those, I might have been able to stop in time cuz they're wider than my old tires. Good traction. Oh well...

235[60]R15 = 0-60 mph < 8 seconds... WHEEEEE!!

Just lucky it wasn't something like an elk. it'd probably total your truck and walk away fine.

So quit complaining...your truck walked away with no scratches and so did your girlfriend. On a plus side you have new tires. The best of both worlds I would say

@ Sarge

Heh, Sarge, you're some Bambinator ... Do you know if 'Bambi' died instantly or was it still alive? I hope it did not have to suffer at all. Well, at least you & girlfriend are okeedokie (I bet she freaked out, huh?! ). Oh, your truck as well . If you drove a Honda Civic, you would be really pissed off right now .

Well, even though I am in Germany, I drive a really old Chevy Nova . You know, that kind of car you can see on your family pictures of the 70's.

I just had to think about a particular scene of "I Know What You Did Last Summer" ...


Peace & happy drivin' .

Kassie-


Somebody-
I drive a '95 Chevy S-10 Super Sport...

Budgie-
The Bambinator, huh? I like the sound of that. I raced a Civic a couple months ago... I kicked it's ass. I also raced a Ford F-150. I kicked his ass, too. So, you drive a Nova? Cool beans. Chevy rocks.

You think it was bad killing a deer with a truck, you should have seen the mess my friend made of a cat. Trouble is, even though he ran straight over its back, it was still alive. So he got out his car walked over and stamped on it's head. And he likes cats.

Well... to clear things up just a little...

I was going out with Kassie a while back, but it didn't work out because we love each other like a brother and sister... That's ok, though. She knows that I will always hold a special place in my heart for her.

Btw, if you ever need to confess something, I guess the most appropriate person would Reverend Ike (for obvious reasons)

I should hope so. Don't want to drive home with a deer stuck to the front of the car

or did it land in the road? If so I hope you took it home to eat.
