I fucking hate deer. I have yet to hear someone justify their existance other than "They are one of God's creatures" or "everything serves a purpose". Give me one postitive purpose of a deer?

I don't believe skills had much to do with him staying up. He was probably 100ft from impact before he had a chance to shit his pants.

ONSSP's mom and BF hit a deer in Yosemite a couple months ago... it wasn't better.

The thing is, it's not that amazing really. If you do the math, from a physics stand point, if the rider does not panic and basically does nothing, he is almost certain to stay upright. In fact, the faster you are going, the more likely you are you to NOT hit the ground.

Based on the number of deer you hit, you should start carrying a little bb grill with you. Deer meat is pretty fucking tasty.

Man we have soooo many deer around here and that is definitely one fear I have when blasting around the country side.

Glad it all turned out OK-ish

I wondered the same thing when I read the title.

Seen a buddy get his rear tire clipped by a deer who ran along side of us on the other side of a fence of a golf coarse. Bambi decided he wanted over and jumped right at my buddy, and just like Bambi on ice went splat on the asphalt clipping my buddies rear tire. He managed to stay up. His bike was a critter getter though, every ride it was birds, turkeys, bunnies, deer coming after him. Think he had deer whistles on that bike backwards.

Bow season opens this Saturday in VA I hope to reduce their numbers this yr.

Holy crap Suzuki makes indestructible bikes. I am floored at the modest damage to the bike (seemed to ride straight) compared to how mutilated the deer is. My biggest fear is hitting a deer (car or bike but esp a bike). This dude has some mad skills.
