This his son. I feel like a jerk for what happened to the truck because of what it is/was, if there was anything I could have done I would have done it as there was elk in both lanes on a small two lane road. As far as the meat goes, the little town that it happened by just got wiped out by recent storms/flooding so I gave it to the locals, some ppl there lost everything and needed it more than me. Dad has good insurance though so hopefully maybe it can be saved.

Glad you're okay Jr. and glad your Dad only has a bent truck to worry about.  Not much you can do in that situation.  Reminds me of the time I first saw a highway sign that said "open range"  Next thing I said was WTF?

Yikes  Shocked An elk? Glad nobody was hurt.  I'll bet an elk does a little more damage than a deer
