Hit a deer. November 2009 first day of hunting season for rifles. Season is open year round for Harley's.
$4,600 in damage, broken toe, bruises and strains. Leathers scuffed up and a nice imprint of my off duty weapon in my chaps. Seems I slid a bit on that side once I was down. Damn trooper wouldn't let me shoot the doe and I was so pissed that I didn't even think to keep the meat. Worst thing was that some *******(s) had scattered corn and seed on the shoulder on both sides of the roadway to lure the deer up there.

Took 16 staples, 7 screws, and a two piece interlocking plate to put my elbow back where it had been before I went down.

AWE man that looks like it hurt , it makes me feel sick to my stomach just looking at it
