Try not to slam the brakes. Could be even worse. Everyone hits deer around here. And nearly everyone has a grill guard at the very least. Many have cow catchers, the big steel or aluminum bumper replacement grill guards. They are nice for protection. Doesn't stop them from running into the side but at least when you're out in the middle of nowhere you can still drive home.
Put a full replacement on my International 9900 truck after hitting one square in the nose. Wrecked the hood, grill, other minor things and the antler went through a front tire. Hit 2 so far head on after the replacement... Couple pieces of hair and excrement and no sign of the deer. Doing 65. Zero damage. $4000 well spent. Sure, insurance will cover it. But it's the down time and being out in the middle of everywhere in the plains of South Dakota in the middle of the night and not being able to keep the engine running in -20 weather that makes it pretty cheap really.
We really like deer hunting around our area but it's not keeping up.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
