Hitting a dear and having insurance is the only intelligent way to "go hunting" in my mind.

We can't let it go.


It is a given, fact seen here over and over that you will do what ever is necessary to save a buk, be it is to save weight or time or whatever. That is a very shallow way to think about hunting. It is more then that, if you do not understand then you never will. Thats like all that decoration you add to your house for xmas, ect. Well that is a waste of time, money. But it is something you like, so you do it.

Epic thread u turn fail

Custm that was the one of the top ten stupidest things I've ever read . I don't wish anyone to hit an animal with their car that causes damage and possible bodily harm , let alone all the bullshit you have yo go thru to get your stuff fixed .

And don't get me started on my hunting . :/

I know you probably don't carry insurance on your vehicles but for us that do it jacks premiums up when people have to claim things. So if you drive around looking for a new front end I have something to say, thanks!


Don't bash hunting if you have never tried it before. A thousand dollars doesn't put a dent in the cost to hunt. Keep on movin along buddy.


This was not directed to the OP at all. That incident wasn't preventable.

anyone who supports the front bumper method of hunting is more than welcome to come up here and try to bag some of our moose that way...

I do have insurance on my vehicles. I don't go hunting for deer with my truck and I have only hit one deer in my life. Best part for me was it happened in a company truck so I didn't pay anything, I dropped the deer off at a friends house and got to eat some jerky about a week later.

Obviously I don't hunt, and fully understand we all have our hobbies! There are some idiots out there that think we are crazy for modifying out trucks/cars. Obviously we all agree they are completely wrong. haha

I was trying to make Tim feel better about loosing $1000. Sounds like he is a hunter so he unfortunately hit a deer(wife anyhow) and still has $1000+ worth of hunting stuff. She did saved him atleast one if not many mornings out in the cold but still put some sausage in his belly!

Obviously any collision with a vehicle can become very dangerous but thankfully in this and most cases involving a deer everyone was OK besides the deer.
