Here is the story and then a link to the original.
Just because it's officially buck season doesn't mean deer will be cooperative after taking a few bullets.
A Missouri hunter found that out recently when a seemingly dead 9-point, 240-pound buck arose and attacked him (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2008/12/01/national/a121743S72.DTL). Randy Goodman, 49, believed two shots from his .270-caliber rifle had killed the animal, but when he approached, the deer sprang up and greeted him with an antler onslaught the hunter later referred to as "15 seconds of hell."
The deer then attempted to escape, but Goodman put it down with two more shots. Minutes later, Goodman noticed he was bleeding and drove to a local hospital.
He was treated for a concussion and bruises and received seven staples in his head. We hope they also gave him a new pair of drawers.
