Yes, that was a bluff charge. Ripping up the bush was a show of strength but also anxiety. The ears out were a show of size.

Leaving was a good thing to do. Were you on foot or in a car?

If you had stuck around, only three possibilities; one a stand off, two he turns and leaves; three he comes on. In my limited experience, with bulls its more likely one or two but enough of a chance of number three to back out - for sure.
