[glow=red,2,300]SURPRISE![/glow] ;D SEDALIA, Mo. - A hunter bagged a big buck on the second day of firearms season, but the kill caused him a lot of pain. Randy Goodman, 49, said he thought two well-placed shots with his .270-caliber rifle had killed the buck on Nov. 19. Goodman said the deer looked dead to him, but seconds later the nine-point, 240-pound animal came to life. The buck rose up, knocked Goodman down and attacked him with his antlers in what the veteran hunter called "15 seconds of hell." The deer ran a short distance and went down, and died after Goodman fired two more shots. Soon Goodman started feeling dizzy and noticed his vest was soaked in blood. So he reached his truck and drove to a hospital, where he received seven staples in his scalp and was treated for a slight concussion and bruises. I know I know, the hunter needed a more powerful rifle...

You'd think a .270 would get the job done... but a .22 that finds the mark is far more effective than a .50 cal that misses.

Yeah, I read this yesterday. I have a feeling that the first two were not "well aimed shots."
Shot placement, shot placement, shot placement. I

Al Queda deer. All amp'd up on meth, I'm sure. He's lucky the deer wasn't wearing an explosive vest. That's why we recommend a double tap to the head, just to make sure.

I see it as the deer had fight in him.
A fatal wound can bring someone without fight in him down instantly, yet someone with fight in them continues to go on until they can't no more.
Likewise, a graze (minor wound) can bring a weenie down, regardless of how few damage is done.
The same applies to animals. Some have more fight than others. This is why many terriers (even rat sized ones) continue to fight even when mortally wounded, out of awnryness (yes I know I'm not spelling this word right).

Glad you got a chuckle! Every once in a while my mind travels down a path of childishness, and for the most part I keep it in check, but every now and then... ;D ;D ;D
