The Mack did good, you're lucky !! -
Last time I got one, I was in a company freightshaker....it didn't do near as well...

As soon as I got it home, I straightened it out as best I could....didn't want to attract TOO much attention

Around my neck of the woods hitting a Deer would put you on the side of the road calling a wrecker. We call them Muleys.
-
The last time I hit an deer with my mack it broke the bumper cover into 3 pieces, there where only bits and pieces left of the deer.

I guess I'm in the club too. Got one about the same size last week.
