Deer around here are overpopulated and something to think about on every ride. Take care, get well soon and head back on out as soon as you're able.

I hope you and your wife heal rapidly.
In my region during hunting season wild sows run across harvested fields with their young boars. They can cross the road several times running in and out of the ditches before disappearing under vegetation. By the time you identify the type of animal it's often too late to react before you hit one!

In France collection of a small animal killed in a road accident can be considered as poaching; deers, swines, wild sheep go directly into your freezer when you drive a truck

i generally shoot my deer over a corn feeder from about 100 yards. running over them like that sometimes ruins the meat...pay the money for the deer lease next time! seriously, hope you guys heal quickly and are back on the road soon.
