Our last adult buck was really, really sweet when he wasn't in rut.. When he was in rut, though...totally different animal. He put his head into the small of my back and gave me a light shove more than once, which could have been really bad..
He started screwing with me one day as I was trying to doctor one of the does.. He really put his head into me this time, and I'd had enough.. So, I basically punched him right between the eyes as hard as I could. I mean hard.
Bear in mind that I'm no pushover at about 6'1, 260lbs.. My hand HURT after I hit him, and I could tell that it rung his bell just a bit.. But he just kinda jerked his head back a little then almost immediately proceeded to push me again.
After that I kinda thought to myself...big dummy...his head's like a sledge hammer...you just punched a sledge hammer.
That's when I decided to post him for sale. Just too annoying.
