I was just wondering if any of you have had or heard of an encounter with a buck that wanted to brawl? I ask this cause it almost happened to me during bow this season. I was still hunting one day. I succesfully stalked a buck to within 30 yards. At the last moment just before I was getting ready to draw, I was positioning myself and made a crunch noise. This got the bucks full attention!! he swung his head and gazed right at me for what seemed like forever. I remained motionless. It seemed like it was making him mad not being able to figure out what I was. Then he grunted 3 times at me and lowered his head. He stomped both feet on the ground and started heading towards me. I gotta be honest, this freaked me out. First time I' ve been in that situation. I figured before he got into a full charge, I best get up and let him know I' m the bad guy. So I did and he bolted off thank God. But it got me thinking. first, I wasn' t sure how to scare off a buck that was already in fight mode (I just got lucky on that one I guess). Secondly, what do you actually do if he does attack you??
