As I understand it, deer in confined spaces basically just bash themselves off of stuff until they're dead. They panic, break their legs, and all kinds of craziness.
Mind you, I've never had to fight a deer.

Maybe the guy just wanted to fight it so he could say he killed a 1500 pound animal with his bare hands.
(sounds like something I'd do)

No, they're in about the same weight class.
But deer don't wear gloves on the hooves.

I seriously doubt it was over 200 lbs, but still a very dangerous animal. They do panic when trapped, but I would have just closed the door to the room and called the police. That's why you have insurance. Hats off to the guy for being able to kill it, but he took a big risk.Solidman82 said:

I shot an 8 point buck a few years back and it didn’t weigh more than 130-150lbs. But I will admit if you were to try and go, toe to toe with a deer that size you better pack a lunch. I just wonder why the guy didn’t shoot the thing, or throw a blanket over it and drag it outside?

Like I said, he wanted war stories.

We used to have a pet deer for a few weeks. It was funny, bounding over our couch or running onto the linoleum where it could slide like it was ice. Fun pet...Hey, this is West Virginia, dude!
My next door neighbor beat a brown bear to death with a tree branch. ... Normal stuff around here.
...aah, the traditional arts live on!

probably actually a black bear in brown coloration. HUGE difference in size between a black bear and a brown bear, and I don't think brown bears live in your neck of the woods.
Flying Crane said:
I got to agree, Brown bears are usually 8-10 feet tall and weigh in at 1500 lbs or so...
Hitting them with a stick would annoy them at best.

You're absolutely right. And I even knew the difference.
I was pounding out that post quickly and wasn't thinking about it. I made the mistake because I was remembering it from when I was a kid and the guy referred to it as a brown bear.
The bear was actually brown...so were the pieces of wood stuck in it...but technically you're right. The way I figure it, if some yokel has the gumption to beat a bear with a tree he can call it anything he wants!
