Man battles buck with his bare hands, and wins

[baggio248]

This guy is bad a$$!!! The details are a bit grusome, but amazing.


BENTONVILLE, Ark. - For 40 exhausting minutes, Wayne Goldsberry battled a buck with his bare hands in his daughter's bedroom.

Goldsberry finally subdued the five-point whitetail deer that crashed through a bedroom window at his daughter's home Friday. When it was over, blood splattered the walls and the deer lay on the bedroom floor, its neck broken.

Goldsberry was at his daughter's home when he heard glass breaking. He went back to check on the noise and found the deer.

"I was standing about like this peeking around the corner when the deer came out of the bedroom," said Goldsberry, demonstrating while peering around his kitchen wall. The deer ran down the hall and into the master bedroom — "jumping back and forth across the bed."

"I could tell he was really tearing up the place back there," Goldsberry said.

Goldsberry entered the bedroom to confront the deer and, after a brief struggle, emerged to tell his wife to call police. After returning to the bedroom, the fight continued. Goldsberry finally was able to grip the animal and twist its neck, killing it.

"He was trying to get up a corner wall and I just came in behind him and grabbed him by the horns and just started pushing down," said Goldsberry.

Goldsberry, sore from the struggle, dragged the dead animal out of the house.

"He got kicked several times. He was walking bowlegged for awhile," Deputy Doug Gay said.

Benton County Sheriff Keith Ferguson said that when he arrived he found the deer dead in the front yard. Goldsberry intended to have the deer processed for its meat.

Gay said that, this time of year, bucks that see their reflection in windows often charge them, believing the mirror image to be a rival.

On Monday in Pine Bluff, the principal of Coleman Elementary School rid his building of a deer by opening a door. Students were preparing for dismissal Monday when a deer crashed through a window and bounded through a hallway.

The buck floundered on the school's slick floor for about three minutes exiting via a door along the side of a hallway. Principal Bill Tietz said the deer was slightly injured from the glass and lost an antler. Tietz said the animal leapt a 6-foot fence after leaving the school.

what is wrong with the deer. and why wouldn't you just close the door and wait for the police. and if you insisted on going in there after taking the time to come out and tell your wife to call the police why didn't you grab a big knife and just cut the deers throat.

[nickel]

bet he was in the rut. deer do crazy things during that season.

:stupid:

A little common sense seems to elude some people

[cheapchinese]

do you mean mating season?

[Grimm]

I would presume that a 5 point buck could just break down an average inner door. It's a couple pieces of not much more than cardboard and some paint...
Plus, consider the damge, have you ever seen what a large animal can do to an average room?. Also there is an instinctual reaction to attack an intruder to your home.

[rockets26]

I thought the whole topic was about a duck.. I'm like man battles duck? wth

"He got kicked several times. He was walking bowlegged for awhile," Deputy Doug Gay said.:thud: You would have thought he learned his lesson the first time he got kicked in the family jewels.

You assume a buck would know where the door is . . . as far as it is concerned, it would just be in an enclosed space and would not know how to get out . . . it would likely bang around quite a bit, but would need to get lucky to find the way out.

Also, the likely damage to the room is a fairly easy tradeoff vs. the potential bodily harm.

Lastly, a little common sense should be able to overcome the instinctual reaction to attack an intruder in your home . . . especially when you know you and your family can easily escape safely without attacking . . .

There was no reason for him to kill the deer. He could have easily left it alone for animal control to tranquilize it. Guy just wanted to be the big man.

The deer was in his house tearin' up stuff... I'm sure that the deer wasn't "insured" :heh:

Maybe he could've left it alone, but then again, he probably was protecting his daughter and his property and that wasn't the first thing that crossed his mind with a wild animal running rampant through the house.

Are you kidding?!?! Have you looked at the prices for meat in the supermarket?

Besides, just think about the BBQ over the weekend.
Guest - "Hey, Wayne, this is some good venison... is it true you killed the buck with your bare hands?!?!"
Wayne - "Yup, and he was a fighter too, I'll tell ya.":hihi:

It's no joke, they are pretty big animals and can pack quite a wallop.

Mmmmm, venison. I was never a big fan until I tried it all fried up. Deeeee-licious!

omg, venison rules! :lick:
and fried isn't the top way i like it prepared. i marinate it for a few days and then grill it.

Marinating might work. The main problem I had with it was that it's not a very tender meat. Frying took care of that. :)

By the way, baggio...where's the link? I know someone who grew up in Bentonville. I want to send this along.

Yeah.. my dad used to soak deer meat in vinegar to help soften it up... and make it less "gamey".

Other than that, he would grind up the deer meat and make burgers and sausages (of course you have to add a little pork or beef fat to make the sausages since the meat is so lean and all. Ummm Ummm good!!!! :lick:

Deer Meat chili is da bomb too!!!! :wow:

note to self:

do not sneak into that man's daughter's room. (with the intention of bucking, of course) :P

[PrObLy]

Oh man...I LOVE venison jerky.

Lots of deer meat for the winter

I would bring out my shotgun and blast the deer. :D

[A Day]

what a pussy, so you killed a deer...now if you did the same **** with a bear...then.. well thats something

If deer were that easy to kill bare handed, then they would be extinct. A buck would mess up most people. It's no cake walk fighting a wild animal.

Obviously you've never been face to face with an adult male deer before to make such a comment...

A large male deer could do some serious damage to a man...

We're not talkin' "little Bambi" here...

sweets....what do you know about cooking deer?


:heh:

[gear02]

ohhhhhhhhhh...we're talking about deer here...I thought he was playing with his...:hmm:

you know, never mind.

[Houdini]

Damn. You have to hand it to the guy. He's a badass.

Why didn't he just shoot it? Close range buckshot or even a well-placed pistol shot at that range would have incapacitated it or killed it. Without a weapon, I can't imagine getting close enough to an agitated deer to cut its throat, or even having the coordination to do so once you've gotten your hands on it. If twisting its neck did the trick (antlers as handles?) that'll work, I guess.
