He weighed in around 250#, the antlers got knocked off but the basses were over 1 1/2" across! About 10K+ in damages.
No damage to any of the coolers and the air bag sensors are above the bumper and on the inboard side of the headlamps. The sensor for the passenger side was broken off but since I was the only person in the truck the bags didn't deploy. Was on my way to work.
Same type of hit I had several years ago but it went under the truck and only damaged the bumper. I had a $1k deductible so I just purchased a nice steel offroad bumper rather than going the insurance route. I think the factory bumper and labor to fix was around $2k so for the same out of pocket I got a bumper that didn't care if a deer hit it.
