Hope American Elk Don't Learn This Tactic!

Met a hunter years ago had this happen from a big muley buck. His partner watched helplessly as it happened. The buck, which was wounded (and later died) hit him hard and tossed him into the air, ripping his shirt off, and one boot. He suffered gore wounds to his calf, thigh, ribs and forearm ; ruptured spleen and a couple of broken ribs (showed me his scars!). Luckily vehicle was close by and he was medevaced rather quickly. He told me he never hunted after that!
 
Why wouldn’t you jump out of the way, or at least hit the deck? All for the footage I guess.

Oh, and when I run into some pollock in the woods with a go-pro, I’m hanging it up.:(
 
Nothing like a deer push in 10’ high brush with a scoped rifle... dont think these guys thought it all the way out
 
If they were pushing the deer why not have a stand in one of big trees. Shouldn't take no more than 5 to set it up.
