a deer story for Larry @ and all

I didn't want to steal your post, and people can pick on me seperately here . A while age the son of an old red cross friend of my mother moved from the US Virgin Islands to new york city. He was frustrated with the food here. He sez with that choppy island accent 'you just can not buy good goat meat here, and so rare and expensive if you do find it'. So, as a joke, 'cause I am corny, I said ' you don't need goat meat, just get an old car, one with a solid grill and a big trunk, and go hit some on the roads outside of the city, if you can't hit one, throw the ones someone else ran over in the back. He looks at me really weird, didn't say anything. Now, been a couple years 'developing this- industry?' He has a 87 mazda with a brush bar grill, baha lights and a plastic lined back end. He goes up the parkways north of the city everynight, and into north jersey and conn on weekends. Checks out all the fresh road kill. He sells it to the Caribean markets in South Bronx, and they make.... curried goat. But none of it is ...goat. I think I created a monster....
BTW, the gang that is now Lyle's favorite deli in Edmonton used to come to my farm upstate to hunt. That gang knew how to make vension taste... good.... really good.

Do they have redneck grilled meat slices with the grill marks on them? You know the marks- GMC, FORD, Toyata- from the grill that hit them. RN

Few years back a son borrowed the wifes car. About 1AM he comes in and wakes us up "I hit a deer" I told him I'd look at in the morning and to go to bed. He says "it's in the trunk and it need dressed out".......so there I am at 2 AM in rain mixed with snow........


After that when we talking to people about deer season I'd tell em I was happy, got one with the 30.06 and another with a 302. I couldn't believe the number of people that ask "that a new round?"......I'd tell em nope, small block Ford V8!

lol @ the 302.

I just bought our first steaks in a while. We pretty much live off venison until it runs out. We shoot em though. lol.

One night, a couple miles from home, a deer came out of a ditch and hit my car in the right front fender, spun and it's rump hit the rear passenger door. I turned around but the deer was gone. When I told my wife she didn't ask if I was ok, just 'did you get the deer'! I called the state police to report it and had a really hard time getting the officer to comprehend the deer hit me, not me hitting the deer. I had the same problem with the call to the insurance company, until the adjuster came out and saw the car.

A guy at work mother called him and said a deer ran over her car. He thought she had misstated until he saw her car. Hoof marks on the hood, roof, and trunk. The deer had indeed 'run over her car'.

My son called home and said he was bringing in a deer. When he hit the deer it went over his car and landed on the road. He was driving a Dodge Avenger which had a plastic front end. The only damage to his car was a very small dent on the hood. He threw it on the trunk lid and the air foil kept it from sliding off. While he called it in I started dressing it out.
On the serious side: Husband was driving, wife was in passenger seat. He hit a good size buck, it came through the windshield and landed on Corra. She died at the scene. I knew the couple.

A few weeks ago a guy from work was riding his motorcycle in to work. . He hit a deer just after dawn. His funeral was a week later
