    Generally speaking, I think it's better to run than fight. Leaving Deerclops to his own may result in your base camp being destroyed. Everything can be rebuilt. It's OK. He's so likely to kill you if you try to stop him, that you're better off just running away.

    He will chase you, but slowly... so you can lure him away from your camp... for a bit. In my experience, he always comes back.

    He'll despawn on the first day of summer as long as he's not on the screen (or nearly so)

    Frankly, if you kill Deerclops on your first try, without using a wiki or anything for tips, then you are a masta of Don't Starve. Deerclops hits extremely hard, wrecks your sanity just being near him, has massive health, etc.

    I said in a previous post that the item dropped by Deerclops isn't used in any recipes, but there is now a recipe that uses Deerclops Eye. Unfortunately, it also uses another boss drop, and is pretty tough to make.

    Well I just really don't have any type of projectile weapons at all, so that's kind of a problem. I'm pretty sure that it would be pretty easy to off him if I had enough darts or whatever else there is available. I haven't really gotten too far into making cool shit yet.

    The log suit plus a spear was more than sufficient to kill multiple hounds, multiple spiders or even the big tree thing (because it attacks so slowly), but I got my ass whooped with trying to stick and move against the Deerclops.
