Was going out to some shopping tonight and as I was driving along, I see this buck heading full bore for the road. i had open road ahead of me so I floored the fuel on my truck and even went out in the other lane.  I was listening closely as our paths converged hoping I missed him and SMACK! :shock: So I pulled over.  He was laying on the road, still moving. :( So I prodded him with a stick to see if he would jump up or anything.  No movement.  So, I grabbed him by the horn and drug him off the road.  I didnt have my pistol with me so I called my buddy thats a game warden and he showed up in a few mins. and put it out of its misery.  Luckily I didnt have my gun.  He told me you arent allowed to kill n animal after its been hit.  Never knew that.  So, I called my other friend up thats a butcher and he said to bring it on over and he would take care of it for me.  So, we will have a freezer full of deer meat this year.   Hated hitting it,  I gave up hunting years ago.  Just dont like killing things anymore.  Sometimes in archery season I get the urge to grab the bow and sit in the woods but I never have a license.  Oh well.  On the bright side, it only put a small dent in the bedside of my truck.  My friend thats a body man (I know, I have lots of friends) is gonna stop by tomorrow and see if he cant pop it out without even having to paint it.  So, That was my evening. cat28.gif
