Terry Charles Bulling was born on December 15, 1952 in Lynwood, California.

The Minnesota Twins selected him in round 14 of the 1974 MLB Draft. He was accidentally shot by a teammate while in the minor leagues, forcing him to spend three days in intensive care. Bulling made his Major League debut for the Twins in 1977. He went 5-for-32 (.156) with five walks and two sacrifice bunts over 15 games for the Twins. Bulling drove in five runs, and caught one of eight potential base stealers from behind the plate.

He spent all of 1978 in the Twins minor league system. The Seattle Mariners purchased his contract during spring training in 1979. Bulling played 123 games over parts of three seasons for the Mariners, batting .230 with three home runs and 23 RBI.
