        yeah i'm fine now after a shower. I really don't know what happened with the deer, it happened and I kept driving home, I wasn't even a half a mile from home.

          It looks like you just clipped the deer so he's probably ok... I guess it would be about that time to break out the bow and go end his suffering.... or payback, whichever is more gratifying lol

            lol I wouldn't even have an idea where to start looking for him/her, I'm no hunter. I thought at first he was a pretty big one, but i could be wrong.

              Glad to see your ok, luckly these wasn't unrepairable damage. You sure Chuck Norris didn't run into you?

              If Jesus can walk on water then Chuck Norris can swim through land. It was once told that while swimming through land the mighty Chuck Norris was stopped by 91blufestiva

                Wow! Glad to see you seem to be okay!

                Hope there's no infection or anything; hope you got washed up nicely. You dont look too happy in those pictures!

                Your car looks like it got off easy too! Just a buncha broken glass. Could have been much, MUCH worse!

                Maybe its' time to think about "culling the herd?" Think venison...

                        Besides another car, a deer is a festys worst enemy.

                          Just don't install them backwards! Then they might attract deer!

                              I think you and the car made out pretty good,the cuts will heal up and you still have a car to drive.My neighbor hit a Deer head on with his Festiva.The car really took a hit,Mike saw it comming and threw himself sideways to the passengers seat,the deer came through the windshield and landed on top of him,he had glass cuts but thats all he got out of it. Do you have extra windows to put back in.
