Hit a deer tonight with my AEV Premium Bumper. Cruising at 35mph uphill around a left hand bend, at night, & in the rain. Fortunately it hit right at the shackle mount and crush can. No damage to the Jeep that I can see, I'll wait for daylight to know for sure. RIP lil' buddy.

No damage? That crush can cover is scratched a lot, if that matters to you.

Yup poooor little Bambi. If you don't like it don't look at it. Its nice to see the size of the deer for future reference for us.

Deer are far from defenseless. Ever hit one and have it come through the windshield still alive? Hes lucky that bumper eliminated the deer before it could cause some serious damage to a smaller car.
