I've seen this. The moron in the tape covered himself with buck lure
during the rut with a pen raised deer. The buck was not as much
attacking him as exerting his dominant rights as happens when bucks
fight over does. Buck lures usually come with warning not to apply to
your person as most contain urine from does in heat or tarsal glands of
rutting bucks.

As for deer running long distances, they don't. Deer are sprinters and
put on a burst of speed to find cover. Then they stop and wait and run
again if pursuer finds them. In parts of country, deer hunters are
allowed to use dogs. This is usually in swampy areas where deer can
take refuge.
