Deer vs front bumper

Yea, I was about 50ft from my driveway this morning in the dark. The explosion of plastic and hair was spectacular. The grill and bumper vanished. Let the fun begin.

Those plastic parts, some held on by plastic screws, won't stand a chance against a good sized deer. How fast were you going? Would you at least have venison for the next few months?

about 25, not fast but no match for the brittle front bumper cover. It was enough to send the deer flying before I even hit the brake. Had to pull the metal frame in the front out. Grill on the way from Ebay. and bumper cover being delivered next week. Sorry can't tell my source. MaryAnn will be back in action soon, Ginger is taking over for now. And yes after I dispatched the deer my good friend came and got it.
