Bryce Mitchell, UFC veteran and a 16-1 in professional MMA, is in the top 10 of the promotion’s featherweight division…
And, well, it seems that he hasn’t put his fighting skills to good use only inside the octagon – but also against, well, wild animals. More specifically, a deer.
It was in a recent episode of the “Overdogs Podcast” that Mitchell confirmed that the rumors of him choking out a deer are, indeed, true:
That happened. Not like the biggest doe ever, but definitely not a small one.
I was hunting with a crossbow and I had my scope electrical taped on there.
I guess when I got out to the woods the tape wiggled loose and I was shooting and missing.I’m not kidding, because my scope was taped on.
He continued:
I called the doe in for like two and a half hours.
It fell asleep and I took a shot. And I missed.I just climbed down the deer stand and I said I’m going to try to get my hands on it.
I waited till it went back to sleep and I went real quiet down the deer stand and I was, like: “F*ck it, I’m going to do it.”Before I slid the choke in I texted my coach and I told him to help.
Slid my left arm in and I proceeded to choke it to death.
