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.

We really like deer hunting around our area but it's not keeping up.

He was the one with the threshing machine, a JI Case on steel wheels, and he pulled it to our farm with a JI Case standard tractor also on steel. In those days, steel wheeled implements were common. The roads were general gravel, so the lugs cutting into them wasn't a problem. George would set up the thresher, s
