Back From Turkey! Big Hogs Down!

Martin passed away Sept. 2022. We had a hunt planned with him only to find out he passed in Turkey. His lovely wife arranged to complete our trip with another outfitter. Wonderful hunt. Alecia is truly a wonderful soul that we applaud for her inner strength. May your children grow up strong and cherish the memory of their father.
Rest well Martin. MTG

Hitting any animal with short legs and large body is bad news with a tractor trailer, A bear or hog is dangerous. As a wildlife office I have investigated a lot of incidents with wild and domestic animals, A hog going under a tractor trailer is dangerous. If any large animal hit on the end of some t/t bumpers, The bumper end collapses against the front tire, Bumper cuts the tire. Then its Oh S!!l( where is this rig landing.
One night I got called on a wreck with a Deer and Mack dump truck. The deer looked like hairy hamburger, The new truck with less than 100 miles being driven home from the dealership was a mess. The bumper folded, Tire blew, the truck went into the ditch with a cliff of rocks jutting out of the hill. The right side of the truck cab and bed took the lick. The truck left the scene on a Wrecker.

In the area several of the truckers would remove the bumper, Replace the bumper with a piece of channel beam With a pull ring to protect the radiator, On logging and coal trucks. The wheel would run over an animals with no tire damage and driver still had control of the tractor.
