Some gal pulled her SUV up to the curb on the opposite side from where I was. A few minutes later the two big bulls got into it and wound up fighting their way right next to her SUV. I'm only guessing here, but it seemed like they slammed into it at least six times on one side, putting some quite hefty dings in it. Then they moved to the back end and wound up tearing off the spare tire dealie that was mounted to the rear door. She was sitting inside the entire time and too dumb to start the engine and move. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattys281 Report post Posted December 21, 2019 Dang! Nice footage. I’ve seen lots of little guys play fighting but have yet to see a full of rut battle. That’s be pretty cool to witness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
