Heres a little story,

As I was coming home the other night, I rounded a bend and standing in the middle of the road was the biggest buck dear I have ever seen. The top of its rack had to be higher than my roof and it took up the whole lane length wise. I might have been doing 65 and right when i rounded the bend i ment it head on. I didn't have time to stop and i just hit that sucker dead on. My uncle was ridin with me and said he seen the head fly past his window. I wasn't even buckled in, but it was just a slight jolt. I felt the truck jump as it got sucked under and it slowed me down to about 55. The passenger headlight was gone, but I just hit her and kept on rollin along. Then I noticed the temp gauge start to creep up and all of a sudden everthing turned off . So I pulled onto the side of the road and let her cool down, after seeing the grill was gone, radiator got pushed back and punctured by the fan, and the positive cable jumped off the battery. We put some water in it after it cooled and it fired right up and we limped her home. The funny part is I didn't realize untill the next day there was a dear leg lodged underneath. I put a new radiator and grill on and you never even knew it happened. I can only imagine what the guy following me thought when i hit it and kept going.

 

Since last Oct:

Our second gen CTD (99) caught a deer in the drivers rear quarter: $1200

The 07 Mega Cab CTD got one to the rear of the cab, bedside and leer top: $4800

My wifes montana got clipped in the front: $650

You hunters need to harvest more BAMBI's!

 

Is them there dear legs good eatin?

 

i rolled one down my passenger side of my 2001 F150 at 65 mph on the freeway, cost 2300$$, i was gonna run back and kill it and cut its antlers off but the peterbilt that smacked it at 80 as it tried to stand up pretty much took care of it before i got to it, imagine a 10 gallon bucket of strawberry jelly getting hit by a semi truck, yeah.

 

ROFLMAO I just spit soda all over my laptop....you owe me one now.

 

this is why i built the slayer bumper / gaurd

 

I thought bucks were slick-headed at this time of year.

There were a couple of construction workers in the shop, in a truck that was tore all to pieces, that had hit not one, but TWO deer, the night before, in two seperate parts of the state; one in Muhlenburg County and one in Metcalf County.

There was deer hair caught in every crevice, a shattered windshield, and blood and meat all over.

The reason they were in the shop was the bumper had gotten pushed back and had cut a groove into the steel cord of a tire.

 

saw one tuesday close up and he had about four inches of new antlers pushing up.

 

How big was them antlers again? And, how much is an out of state hunting liscense in your parts?

 

My new truck came with a hell of a bumper. This one won't fold in and take out your whole front end like those bolt on brushguards. We have alot bigger things to worry about hitting than deer up here. However think its ugly and will eventualy bend a new tube bumper....
