geese have this weird idea that if one thinks its ok to take off the rest should just follow, so this flock started to do the run and start to fly as im driving and they are crossing the road, one just missed my driver side window, and the next one gets nailed by the ladder racks leg on the back of my truck, and falls into the back of my truck, "dead" the force these things have is insane, the whole truck rocked like crazy, then i had to pull over and remove the body, not fun.

Thats the way it was with me. There were 4 in a yard, 2 took off a good 300 ft away, and then the other 2 were just walking around....and then the one decided oh im gonna take off and it was hit the goose or wreck the G6. And at the time i wish i would have swerved or slammed on the brakes cuz damn. like you said, its crazy how much force they have. Everyone, including my insurance agent thought it was funny. However, it took me a couple days to find the humor in it.
So moral of the story...dont hit a goose.
