Oh Deer there goes the Buick.

My Father hasn't hunted deer for years but a buck still got his revenge one fall day. As my parents drove in their nice buick on a county road they were followed by a young man who was in turn followed (to closely it turns out) by a car full of teenager. Did the Buck see his chance to total 2 cars ? We know my Dad didn't see the deer as he jumped over a barbwire fence and right into the road. He was a big one! He had a rack that would have excited any hunter but as my Father tells it, the antlers were the first thing Dad saw as they came right at the windshield. The ill fated buck left a trail that C.S.I. could easily follow. The roof was dented in, the drivers door as well as the back seat door where badly damaged with the window broke in and deer dropping all over the back seat. My dad didn't hit the brakes - saving both of my parents the pain of a sudden stop and because the deer hit them not the other way around the air bags didn't deploy. Was that good driving or the slow reflexes of a 70 something driver? That is up for debate but It was advantageous. The driver of the second car was quick to see this and stop. If only the driver with the teenagers had been as quick! Yes the third car rear ended the second car. The buck left the scene of the crime. What became of Him we will never know. We fear the worse.
