Got one 2 hours before first light!
With my F-150! Stupid doe ran out in front of me and I had no time to react. It destroyed my bumper and the trim above it, almost took out the radiator and rammed the bumper into my left front tire. Fortunately, my son-in-law was behind me and he had the tools to remove the bumper, so we made it to the lease. I only saw two does this morning. I got down at 10:00 and called in the insurance claim (I'm so glad I got a zero deductible) and got back on the stand by 1:00. I'm sitting here now. Wind is perfect for this stand... S/SE... But it's a bit strong. Oh yeah.... This is bowhunting related since it happened on the way to a bowhunt, and I'm bowhunting now. (This iPhone is a pretty cool toy!!)

RE: Got one 2 hours before first light!
Same thing happened to a friend at work. Only she felt the impact, but never went over the deer. She got to work and Gayle was rather surprised to find one in her grill. She thought the truck wasn't accelerating as quickly as normal, but thought nothing of it.
I know, I know... call me insensitive or whatever, but that happened to be the funniest picture I've seen in a long time.
