This has been the worst year EVER for running into deer (or vice-versa).
My brother's wife recently totaled their car on a deer, my pond excavator just wrecked his truck on a deer, I ran one over yesterday in my truck, but today I used my mom's 2004 Honda Pilot and hit yet another deer. Boy am I in trouble. Even after promptly admitting to all the blame, saying I was sorry, and willing to pay for all repairs, I am still grounded from using my parents vehicles for life. I hope time does heal all wounds. I only cracked the grill and some trim - I still feel pretty lucky.
It was ironic because I took my eyes off the road for only a second as I passed a dead deer along side of the road. That instant is when I sent a doe skidding on her back down the road with all her feet up in the air for over a hundred feet.
It is hunting season but I am not looking for action. Will a brush guard really protect the front of my truck if I hit yet another deer?
Thanks
