This guy's gotta have a big brass pair (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9896288/)

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.

That's just....wow...:eek:

Old news travels fast...

Tough guy. Almost like my Dad.

EDIT: WHAT THE HELL! I HAVE MORE THAN 1k OF POSTS!!!!!11111oneoneone-eleven! :eek:

I'm going to his house for dinner. I haven't had venison in a long time. :D

Old news travels fast...

Well this is the first I've heard of it. Is this really old or just a couple days old?

That guy is amazing, but couldn't he have like closed the door and called animal control to shoot the deer with tranqs or something?

It didn't say anything about anyone being in any danger.

I once killed fifty deer with nothing but an AK-47 and a 9-iron.

Nov 2, but this is the first I've seen it too

I guess he thought he could subdue it rather then let the thing tear up his daughter's room, the story doesn't say.

Yeah - I imagine that replacing a cabinet and a television is probably a lot cheaper and less painful than risking life and limb.

Note that this guy lives right here in Arkansas. We have bucks crashing through windows fairly often this time of year. Deer are in rut and the bucks charge their reflections in windows. I have a few pounds of venison in my deep freezer from last year (smugly). I made a vegetable venison soup and chili already this fall. Of course it's supposed to be in the 80's here tomorrow so I guess it's venison grilling time again.

Impressive, well done.

Call animal control and the deer is captured and disposed of. Kill it and your family eats gooooooooood for a few weeks. No brainer there.

its AK, I'm surprised he didnt have a gun

He probably had one - his wife probably refused to let him put buckshot holes in the walls and deer blood on the new carpet.

You would be surprised at how effective a wife can be at preventing her husband from doing something really, really fun.

Actually, it's AR (AK is Alaska). We may be a little hickish down here in Arkansas, but we at least know you shouldn't go shooting your guns around in the house. Plus, a lot of our hunters use bows. Our deer season starts out with hunting with bows only.

well then I guess a bit of dear meat is worth breaking some bones or losing ones life.

What area of AR? Up here around Fayetteville, deer can be seen, but rarely crash through our walls. Perhaps they just don't like dorms...

Deer isn't going to kill you, probably just cut you up a might with their hooves and nick you a little with their antlers. Wild game is a staple in this part of the country. A lot of families wouldn't have much meat on the table if not for deer, raccoons, squirrell, bear, wild boar, wild turkeys & duck, and whatever you can haul out of the rivers, lakes, and swamps.

Now, if I had been there, I would have used katana! You know, special anti-deer kenjutsu techniques! Slish, slahs, sweep, swoop, swung! And there we have a decently sliced deer, ready to be baked and eaten.

That man was so dumb, I mean really, if you live somewhere near agressive deers, of course you know kenjutsu. That's like the first thing you need to know when you enter a deered area!

How do you know he didn't use that to kill the deer...:eek: :D

Right now I live in the Jacksonville area, for commuting purposes to Little Rock. But, my home, and weekend residency is in the mountains, near Greers Ferry Lake, on the Little Red River outside of Heber Springs. I can't wait to retire and go trout fishing off the back deck whenever I feel like it. We put salt licks out for the deer behind the house, so we have them wandering through all the time. We also have bear, fox, possum, and misc other wildlife parading around. We have been the subject of numerous newspapers in the area for the outrageous number of hummingbirds that summer around our house.

I think you are completely missing my point. I'm saying he could have found another way to stop the deer without risking his health. I'm not saying he shouldnt try to get the meat. I'm not saying he's a hick. I'm not saying anything other than that guy is a brave strong mofo but maybe lacking in the common sense department.

I'm pretty sure a deer could do more damage than simply a cut or nick with the antlers though. I thought I heard about a guy getting killed by a deer before actually. Maybe its just an urban legend. I dunno.

Edit: Wait no actually a deer did kill a guy - http://www.waff.com/Global/story.asp?S=1154466

Harmless and can oly cut or nick you eh?

Well you might say he was elderly so I found another article - http://www.outdoorlife.com/outdoor/adventure/oftheweek/article/0,19912,638568,00.html

I'm pretty sure a deep could do more damage than simply a cut or nick with the antlers though. I thought I heard about a guy getting killed by a deep before actually. Maybe its just an urban legend. I dunno.

A deep what?

All we have here are pigeons; you'd have to be a bit on the tall side to catch one as it went flying past! (they don't like us having guns over here.)

Mind you, you got to wonder at the man... 4o mins is a loooong time! I think after a couple of mins I'd be kinda wondering if the whole thing was going my way. :D

I guess the next time this subject crops up.. it'l be on Family Guy. lol.

A deep what?

quiet you!

I corrected my strange typos

How do you know he didn't use that to kill the deer...:eek: :D

Well, the Title says "bare hands", not "hands full of curved Japanese two-handed sword". ;)

That's nothing. I could have killed the deer, my daugher AND my wife with enough time left over to watch American Idol.

Well of course you could have killed the deer, your daugher AND your wife with enough time left over to watch American Idol, you are the Rotovia for heaven's sake!

Bah, I bet I could take ya

:D

That sounds somewhat gay, dude.

A woman after my own heart. Are we having venison stew, steak, BBO, or what? I will be over, just let me know what time and I will bring the wine. :D

No, more fun killing it with your bare hands, not to mention much more macho. No one is going to mess with him for a while. :D

I'd still preferr the katana, though.

well then I guess a bit of dear meat is worth breaking some bones or losing ones life.

Do you eat meat or fish?

Bah, I bet I could take ya

:D
and you'd loose that bet.

(they don't like us having guns over here.) :)

:( No guns? :confused: Where did I put that damn knife? :confused:

How do the English make pigeon pie? How do they get squab? :confused:

:D

Only those who feel insecure about themselves would think that ;)

Yeah, the same came into my mind soon after posting that... perhaps there's something wrong with my imagination rather than your sexuality... Well, the clock is 4:30 in the morning so perhaps it is forgiveable. Now, to bed.

It would make for some good stories on the next hunting trip. "There I was, cornered in the closet ...".

Wasn't there a recent post similar to this? Some deer killed an old man, and I was saying that deer aren't too dangerous if you know what you're doing with them.. Well, case in point.. an average-sized guy can take down (or scare off) a deer pretty easily.. some people didn't believe me, but here we are. :)

Yeah, but the smell... :( It's really quite bad..

lol :)

Stilts!!!!

Guys, Guys, Guys, don't be so hard on the guy. Why didn't he shoot it, stab it or call 911? I mean a crazed deer crashes into your daughter's bedroom, I mean who wouldn't go Rambo on Bambie? Of course little Sally might need therapy.

I am glad to see a few more Arkansas folks out there.

the animals are against us! It must be true. I heard it on the radio! LOL

Know what would be cooler? Killing a deer like Scorpion from Mortal Kombat.

C'mere! ----------------->*stab* *impale* *drag* *eat*

The first deer I ever shot, I had to field dress it with a pen knife. Think that's easy, give it a try some time.
BE PREPARED!

Godmode!

I killed 5000 Deer with a B-52.

Well this is the first I've heard of it. Is this really old or just a couple days old?

Just a couple of days old. He's making a habit of calling articles "old news" when they are in fact less than a week old. (He tried it on me yesterday.) Ｉ guess it depends on your perceptions of what's old.

However, this was too true:
[quote=Sierra BTHP]You would be surprised at how effective a wife can be at preventing her husband from doing something really, really fun.

I hit a deer with a cruise missle once it cooked all the meat but it was hard to find and then seperate from all the other stuff it got mixed in with ..people birds etc. It ended up getting wasted...its a shame to waste good meat like that . They should make smaller cruise missiles .

I killed 99% of the deer in the world with a 40-day flood. Only two survived because some old guy with a beard built a boat.

I rock!

See? Religion gets everywhere, even into threads about killing deer with your bare hands.
