My car went hunting

[campclose]

Grrrr! My hubby took my car this morning to breakfast at the fire station. He came home and he hit a deer. My car was the ammo today! Not the way I want to get a deer. Lucky for him there is only a dent in the rear.

did he bring the deer home? I mean if you gonna use ammo that expensive you should at least get the back straps off of the deer, and any other meat you can salvage.

Hi...


So, the deer was standing behind the car...which was quickly put into reverse...and the deer was yours...!! Way to go...!!:tinysmile_hmm_t:

Glad there was "minimal" damage...and that you now have some venison...!!

I feel for you. This reminds me of the time that I was out on a date with my hubby. We were on our way home and come up on a deer. Well, he ended up putting the deer in my brand new car. I wasn't thrilled at all.

Did your car even have a hunting license? I didn't think they were giving them out to cars this year. Well, I hope you at least got some meat out of the deal!

I remember years ago being on a bike and going through a great trail that I still walk today. My husband and I were just pedaling along to get a little exercise and out jump three huge deer. Darn things scared me half to death. It is always bad when a car and a deer collide but thankfully your husband was not seriously injured.

When I was young I used to wonder why guys would go out hunting for deer. It seems much easier to just drive down the road and hit one with your car! 8^0

A pickup truck with a fender guard, properly aimed can strike a deer emerging from a roadside at just the right time to impact the head only. It's a difficult shot but one we all aspire to with great zeal.

Okay, how does a person hit a deer with the rear of the car??

 

[carmen]

dinosaur you crack me up! Everyone I know that has hit a deer has always been unlucky enough to always use a car instead of a truck.

Ha! Funny. Not the back of the car - the rear. There is a dent in the drivers side back door. He said the deer came out of nowhere and it hit him. I say he hit it.

No, he did not bring the deer home. I agree though, expensive ammo!

When you miss, you have to throw her into reverse.

Now that would have been a funny story. I would have killed my hubby if he actually tried to reverse into the deer. I already explained what the rear of my car is though.

My husband was driving down the interstate in a Volkswagen Bug when he and a friend saw a car hit a deer. The car drove on didn't even stop. They were on their way to do some hunting so their guns were in the trunk. When they stopped the deer was injured but not dead. They went ahead and shot the deer and put it in the which is in the front of the Bug. I laughed so hard when they pulled into the drive way because the deer's head was hanging out of one side and the rear end was hanging out the other side. It looked like the car was eating the deer.

my record is 4 deer at once with a ford escort. I have hit almost everything on the road and taken it home to eat. rabbits, canada geese, turkey....

.....the neighbor's cat, a donkey, a couple turtles, a cow, a kid on a four wheeler, one of Santa's reindeer, and a partridge in a pear tree.

I worked with a guy in Wyo that hit 8 deer with the same truck.

I was in Wisconsin last year and saw a woman and a child loading a bloody deer into the back of her minivan. The grill and hood were smashed to hell and a headlight was shattered. I think people should go to Wisconsin to pick up women. They seem to breed'em right up there.

In my state people will sometimes beat the trooper to the scene of a car/deer collision, and even get in fights over who gets the deer. So it's not uncommon.
I had a deer hit the side of my old pickup once. He almost came into the cab. Lot of antlers... and the best "oh ****!" face I've ever seen on a deer. Those antlers put a good scratch down the side of the truck. I think he survived, he ran off into the woods, and the truck was still drivable. That truck liked to sacrifice animals. Two deer, a goose or two, countless squirrels, a cat, and a big dog... the dog did more damage than anything.

My friend and I were headed out to a geocaching event. A deer ran out in front of us. I saw it last second and slammed in the brakes from 55mph. It jumped, clipped the front driver's fender, and crushed the windshield and roof.

A passerby said the deer went about 20ft in the air and landed about 30ft off the road. Someone else asked if they could have the deer for the meat. I didn't really care because one side of it was going to be bruised meat anyways. I just had her bring me a saw so I could cut the other antler off.
