    Be careful out there. The deer are rising up and fighting back.

    You never approach anything can hurt you without a lot care. Sounds like he did not reload his gun.
    The hunter later died after suffering puncture wounds from the deer's antlers.

    Officials said 66-year-old Thomas Alexander was hunting in Yellville, Arkansas on Tuesday when he shot a buck using a muzzleloader. As he approached the animal, believing it was dead, it attacked him.

    Riding with a buddy Tuesday to the CMP range in Talladega AL. We hit a deer going about 45 on a back road. It jumped to avoid us and we took it right in the windshield where I was sitting.
