It did it with a baseball bat!
Mate of mine hit one on a dual carriageway and it completely demolished his screen!

You DID go back for the pheasant and put it in your boot for consumption later, didn't you?
When we were younger we used to go round the country roads in our Sherpa just grabbing pheasants from the roadside (alive) and take them to our local
butcher. Probably wouldn't get away with it nowadays though. 
Finally back on the job!

I got 2 in one go a couple of years back - I was overtaking someone and they ran across the road - if they'd have carried on I'd have
missed them, but they stopped in the middle of teh road and gawked at me - I didn't have anywhere to go and slowed as much as I could, but there
was a massive cloud of feathers behind.... stoopid birds...

Pheasant meat is rank-rotten (IMHO)!

If you hit it - you're not legally allowed to collect and eat it. The person behind you is ....
So always remember to follow the bloke who hits the pheasant!

That's certainly the case with dear as well.
I took one to my parents just before Xmas!

True, if dear isn't shot well then the adrenaline is allowed to flow and makes it taste like... well... wee very bitter taste to it

I know the feeling, struck one of the stupid birds on Monday. Luckly the mesh folded in and took most of the force.
 
Not too bad as I was doing around 60mph

The less I worked, the more i liked it.
