How r u feeling?
I don 't imagine that his antler actually penetrated your clothing.
He just applied presure against your ribs?

How bad is the glass in your eyes matter?

Was he alone (except for u) or were there other deer around?




If only that deer had been wearing his seatbelt,
he never woud have gone thru the windshield.

Here is a video of a deer you might find interesting. But you might not. I don't know which videos you will like.

She 's a nice deer; nice video.
It's a good thing that she 's a female: no rutting.

I was pleasantly surprized to learn thay can manipulate human artifacts; she 's smarter than I thawt.

After seeing deer warning signs, I 've driven slower n observed cautiously.
Sometimes I 've seen families of deer waiting by the side of the road for an opportunity to cross.

I saw that once with a mother chicken and her baby chicks
in the parking lot of a restaurant on Long Island; the mother
attentively looking to her side for traffic along the road;
then upon the designated signal, thay all hurry across n begin eating in the grass on the other side.

Last month, my wife was stopped by a deer, as she drove Huffsmith toward Tomball. She had to jam the break pretty hard to stop in time. The deer calmly blocked traffic and turned its head to a pair of deer on the shoulder. Those two walked across the street, and then the first deer followed. Little could it know that not every driver can stop for it like that.

There's a joke in there somewhere, I just know it! I'm going to need to email this quote to the NSA for them to decipher what it is! Razz

@tsarstepan,
He apparently edited his post after seeing my story about my wife and some deer.

No edit.
No lie.

He must have been the crossing guard.

I wonder if it's a union job and does it have benefits like health care? If so, I'll email the deer community my resume.

Hello Famerman,
I just saw this thread and I truly wish everything goes well in your recovery.

There are tons of dear where I live and the roads are very hilly, narrow and twisty. There is no street lighting. I rip at high speed on motorcycle and sports car and have done so for years now, but having read your post I may rethink.

Heal-up!

@Ionus,
If it were a reindeer, I would have buried it in the Pinelands with some lime and a codfish on its corpse. Christmas is a crazy season around here.

@Chumly,
Im pretty much just sore and a little black and blue. Nothin serious, Ill just have to watch any hernia as it may or may not develop.

My ;little Escape is undergoing major facial surgery.Its amazing that, once they got all the damaged body parts off the car, it looks like all they have to do is slap new parts right on and nothing will be noticeable. (I hopes).

I didn't infer it was a lie. This just seemed to me to be added after my subsequent post.

@farmerman,
Hello farmerman. Just came across this thread. That is one heck of a story. I have seen some vehicles wrecked by deer. Unbelievable.
,...and it went through your windshield......landed in your lap,........then came around,..to start thrashing,.... wow. Wow.
You are the first person I know with an antler wound.
Sounds like you are on the mend. I am glad for that.
