fieldwanderer Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Haha, I remember having a rubbish day's shooting; what little we had seen we'd missed :( So, a quick trip to the pub was in order! On the way to the pub I ran a rabbit over, we still joke about it now, usually at my expense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aga man Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 bet it don't look so pretty when you hit a deer at speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr smith Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 bet it don't look so pretty when you hit a deer at speed You'd be surprised that they look okay on the surface at least,depends how they are hit,some bounce others go under and get rolled and bounced about under the train.I've had pigeons practically burst on the windscreen.

northernneil Posted August 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Yuk! That beemers a mess, sod cleaning that out! I've got to be honest guys, I've never had a deer, a person yes but never a deer with the train! The ones that kinda upset me is the owls, I don't like getting them, especially when they leave the shadow of death on the screen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be in double figures for deer mostly when i used to do the perth to inverness run.As i said i've hit pretty much the lot they really don't bother me though people are a different ball game. Like this ?? That would certainly wake you up...nasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of the time my mate hit a muntjac with a ford ka.The car was a mess but still got us home.All we could smell through the heater vents was cooking muntjac. He Even got stopped by police on way back as the front end of the car was in a bad state and the first thing the copper said when he walked over was what the **** is that smell muntjac my mate said . Funny thing is He brought another ford ka and it happend again few months later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
