It has very little to do with the artery / pulse point that is in the temple. It has more to do with your head being pushed to the side, and your head returning to midline. The brain strongly dislikes being shoved over to one side of your skull, then back again. The brain does not just stop bouncing once it starts; it is more like a rubber ball that bounces back and forth, back and forth. So the "hurt" is first skin and muscle, blood vessel, and if a severe hit, your brain with a resulting headache. If severe enough, you could have a concussion.
