TF, now that's right up my alley! I could just see it: me, out there trying to stencil the deer....when I look up and see headlights!!!
Nevermind! I think I'll pass on stenciling them. Just hope I don't hit too many more. ops:

you never repeat never hit a dear. they always hit you. even when they run right out in front, you still didn't hit the darn thing, it hit you, period.

almost hit three deer in one a month ago when i was jamming westbound along i-84, approximately 20 miles east of boise. if i had been going a couple miles an hour faster, those three would have had my name on them, and the truck would have been messed up pretty bad. it was about 0300 on a saturday, too. something about 3's on that day.

a year ago when i was going northbound on the ca-139 in tulelake, california. a tule elk came running in a south-east direction across the street. i must've missed it by a foot. it was a fully grown elk, too. man, that would have been a nasty mess.

did anybody go on us95 through idaho about 9 months ago? if so, did you see a dead bear in the northbound lane just north of new meadows? that one had my name on it. after hitting (and reporting) it, i drove the gimpy truck to grangeville where it finally couldn't go anymore.

I haven't hit a deer yet, though I've seen plenty, just lucky I guess. I nailed a striped kitty the other night on US 30 going to Idaho. Next morning, the receiver almost didn't let me back into the dock. Seems he had a forklift driver that's been coming in late and needed wake up aroma therapy. So I got unloaded real fast like.
One area I want to warn drivers of is I-84 from I-80 to Ogden. I ve counted as many as 50 dead deer there in a 1 mile stretch. I've seen a few elk and moose dead there too.
