G'day Steven.
That is one of the main purposes of the ARB bumper besides protecting you while off road.

I have seen many ARB bumpers online from after hitting a dear, and there is hardly any damage to them at all.
Mostly just some blood.

Darn deers, I think they are one of the coolest looking animals, but they sure do love to run out in traffic.

You should submit your story to ARB.
Hit up the link that is by 1)

yeah, what happened w/ the deer? Did you just leave him there? I guess that is one of the few occasions I would want to have a gun (to put a suffering animal out of its misery).

Up here in the "Frozen North". You don't need a rifle for deer, just a spear attached to your front bumper, and stack em up like Shiskabob's. [sp].

yeah that bumper has paid for its self one time before that when i was and i was not to far from home where they cleared the land for houses and i dident want to walk back so i pulled out the winch and winched my self out of the mud.
