I would say I've never hit a deer, a deer hit me on my way hunting no less. I was driving out of town by the area high school and this doe came running over the hill and just ran right in to my passenger side door. My buddy was sitting in the passenger side of my truck and gave a little 'Ahhh'. The dent popped out and there was deer hair stuck to my gas lid door. I saw her run off so she might have survived.
