Man Bags 5-Point Buck... In Bedroom. Unarmed.

Yesterday I killed a deer in my pajamas... no, seriously, I was in my pajamas:

BENTONVILLE, Ark. (AP) -- 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 dead on the bedroom floor, its neck broken.

Goldsberry was at his daughter's home when he heard glass breaking. He went back to check on the noise and found the deer.

"I was standing about like this peeking around the corner when the deer came out of the bedroom," said Goldsberry. The deer ran down the hall and into the master bedroom - "jumping back and forth across the bed."

Goldsberry entered the bedroom to confront the deer and, after a brief struggle, emerged to tell his wife to call police. After returning to the bedroom, the fight continued. Goldsberry finally was able to grip the animal and twist its neck, killing it.

The motive? Animalistic stupidity:

At this time of year, a buck that sees its reflection in a window often charges, believing it is fighting off a rival, Gay said.

Nature's Creatures

Let's get them before they get us.

Does the article say if he went out and bought a freezer?

You know who I feel bad for?

The children.

ok, j/k. Remember that bowhunter on America's Funniest Videos who tried to wrassle that deer? I bet he feels like a complete loser now.

Yesterday I killed a deer in my pajamas... no, seriously, I was in my pajamas:

You wear pajamas? I'm so dissapointed.

As to Mr. Buck, wouldn't it have been easier to walk out leaving the door open in case the buck wanted to wander out and just wait for animal control?

Posted by: on November 3, 2005 12:27 PM

" wouldn't it have been easier to walk out leaving the door open"

Jeez, where's the fun in that?

I know a guy who shot a bear while standing in his living room. He was wearing pajamas too.

Ah, that's nothing Charles Johnson over at LGF waxed a dinosaur in his PJs with nothing but a computer and MS Word...

Posted by: Kristian on November 3, 2005 12:55 PM

He had the thing in the bedroom by itself with the door shut, and he went back in to fight it???

Geez, dude, when you charge back in the room, bring your gun! Or at least take a stick or a frying pan with you. Something.

Adrenaline may be harmful to your health.

Posted by: someone on November 3, 2005 01:15 PM

Can you imagine trying to trump this guy with a hunting story of your own?

Me: "I got this magnificent five-point buck at almost a hundred yards, shooting into a stiff wind..."

Him: "I killed a deer with my bare hands. In my house. Wearing only pajamas. Go fetch me a beer, you worthless douche."

Posted by: Monty on November 3, 2005 01:16 PM

I wonder if they have a tag for "bare hands"?

Probably so. Arkansans is cwazy.

Posted by: Dave in Texas on November 3, 2005 01:49 PM

I whacked the crap out of a spider in my bedroom last night with my slipper. I was feeling so good about myself.

I just want to slink off and die now. I'm not a man.

So you call yours a 'spider,' huh? And you use a slipper. I do understand the part about feeling good, though.

Posted by: geoff on November 3, 2005 02:04 PM

OK, so he DID put it in a freezer.

That answers your question as to why he didn't try to get it to leave on its own.

Free meat.

Posted by: lauraw on November 3, 2005 02:12 PM

I was halfway serious about the tag question... cause he kep it.

Bow?
Rifle?
or your BARE F'N' HANDS?

makes you wonder what other categories there might be on an Arkansas hunting license. Grenade? Garrot? Guillotine? and that's just the Gs!

Posted by: Dave in Texas on November 3, 2005 02:14 PM

Its a clear case of home invasion but oh how the animal right wackos will howl about it

Posted by: spurwing plover on November 3, 2005 03:24 PM

So you call yours a 'spider,' huh?

Spider...testicles. I see where this is going and I will not go there. That image is still stuck in my mind and it gives me night terrors.

Posted by: JackStraw on November 3, 2005 03:30 PM

That answers your question as to why he didn't try to get it to leave on its own.
Free meat.

And in saving a couple of dollars at the butcher's, he is stuck with how many hundreds of dollars worth of damage to his house?

Posted by: on November 3, 2005 03:46 PM

Have you bought a tray of strip steaks lately?? Sheesh. Couple dollars my ass.

Imagine how much that tenderloin alone would have cost at the butcher. Damn.

If the homeowner's policy covered the damage, BONUS.

Posted by: lauraw on November 3, 2005 04:53 PM

Oh, yea? And have you priced a new bed spread for a California King, glass and frame, spackling and repainting the walls? And how many trays of strip steaks do you think his deductible is?

Posted by: on November 3, 2005 05:07 PM

And how many trays of strip steaks do you think his deductible is?

I thought of that and left it out, since what does it matter?

If any other accident had occurred- let's say a tree fell through the house- he'd still have a deductible to cover, but no extra meat in the freezer.

So this is an accident with a silver lining, and obviously he was seizing this opportunity when he decided to take the deer instead of letting it go.

Hell, its Arkansas. For all we know his deductible is paid in meat.

Posted by: lauraw on November 3, 2005 07:38 PM

Wow. I've "punked" visitors during hunting season before....when they ask if they could come along with us to the woods to see what deer hunting is like, I've handed them a pocketknife and said something like "OK remember: when you jump out of the tree and slash it's throat, make sure you're behind the head so you don't get showered by the arterial spray." I can't imagine what would happen if I tried that with this guy.

"No, that's OK, I won't be needing the knife...... Maybe a few Wet Wipes to help clean up afterwards."

Let me ask you this: Would you let your husband wrestle with a frightened wild animal for close to an hour and risk him getting hurt or worse? If you say yes, then I know Mr. Laura has a dble indemnity policy.

Posted by: on November 3, 2005 08:10 PM

Would I *let* him...?
Yeah, I'm sure this guy asked wifey for a permission slip to rassle the deer!

Posted by: lauraw on November 3, 2005 08:56 PM

...and aren't the deer down South smaller than what we're used to up here?
Correct me.

Posted by: lauraw on November 3, 2005 08:58 PM

-I mean, I just can't picture a guy breaking the neck of one of the mammoth bucks we have up North.

Posted by: lauraw on November 3, 2005 09:07 PM

Okay, you convinced me. You're a black widow. Run, Mr. Laura, Run!

Posted by: on November 3, 2005 09:08 PM

By the way, he's uninsured, and he's spectacular.

Posted by: lauraw on November 3, 2005 10:01 PM

Are you married?
And before you decide to do something dangerous, do you ask your wife's permission?
I'm not asking who wears the pants.

I'm asking if you are an adult male.

Posted by: lauraw on November 3, 2005 10:13 PM

And before you decide to do something dangerous, do you ask your wife's permission?

I wait until she's out of the house before I slink off. Like a Viking.

Posted by: geoff on November 3, 2005 10:19 PM

A white-tail 5-point in this part of the world would be about head high - 5'9", 10"-ish.

Me? I'd grab the .45

and the requisite tag. oh wait, that might not work, opening day is this Saturday

Posted by: Dave in Texas on November 3, 2005 10:28 PM

Me? I'd grab the .45

After making sure Mrs. in Texas was OK with it, right??

Naturally you clear everything through the proper channels before you make a move.
Wouldn't want to be hasty and act on your own.

Laaaawwd, no.

Posted by: lauraw on November 3, 2005 11:22 PM

if I did that, her response would be a head turned slightly to the right, like a dog listening to a high-pitched sound, wondering if I wasn't feeling well

I'm frankly surprised the title is 107 Days. I would have thought it would be:
