n a small town just outside Bentonville Arkansas, Wayne Goldsberry was visiting his daughter’s first home after she had graduated from college and moved out for the first time. Its was a normal relaxing Sunday with numerous NFL football games on when things turned for the worst. In a matter of 40 minutes, the newly furnished home looked like a crime scene.
Blood covered the walls and floors, furniture was broken, and a dead deer lay on the ground. Despite the pools of blood on the floor and bruises on Mr. Goldsberry, no charges would be filed on this mind-boggling day.
As this peaceful Sunday came to a close in the mid afternoon Wayne heard a loud shatter of what seamed to be glass. As he calmly walked to his daughter’s room he heard a loud scream he rushed into the bedroom and came face to face with five point whitetail buck. He distracted the deer and ordered his daughter to leave the room and call the police.
Once his daughter was out of sight, he noticed the deer was looking for a way out of the house. It was in the corner of the room trying to climb the walls as if that was an escape route. Goldsberry quickly took advantage of the deers position with its back to him and jumped on it. He grabbed the deer by it’s antlers and wrestled him to the floor. The deer kicked and squirmed. After an exhausting 40 minutes of wrestling a 250 pound, five point buck, Wayne managed to break the deer’s neck by grasping it’s antlers and pulling his head back.
Once the police arrived, Wayne Goldsberry, exhausted and bruised, dragged the deer out to the front lawn. When the police were about to take the deer away, he asked them if he could have the animal processed for meat. That makes this guy that much “cooler” because he acted like nothing happened and he looked at the situation as a free meal.
