In 2001, I shot my 12 Pointer and I wathced him run into a small tree. About 4" in diameter. I did have proof that this happened. Because he broke off the tip of his brow tine in the tree. I went back and pried it out later and now carry it for good luck.

Shot a doe 2 seasons ago with the muzzleloader. She ran into a big tree 60yds away out of sight but not out of ear shot. With a loud "SLAP" she hit the tree. She was piled up at the base of it with her back broken in two places and a rib bone protruding through the skin.[:@] The shot was a clean double lung...

I arrowed a button a few years ago and he then proceeded to run into a tree, you should hear the sound they make when they run full steam into a tree and when it knocks the air out of them.

last year i saw a doe jumping a fence, she got her hind legs caught on the top wire and did a face plant right into the dirt. she got back up and kept running so i guess she wasn't hurt to bad ...but it looked painful.

A couple years back a women driving her car encountered a problem like this, a buck for no reason just ran into the side of her car while it was moving, the buck was fine, and got up and ran off. I am not sure about their intelligence level anymore!
