I have never really heard or seen anything while i was going out to my stand, but my grandpa was telling me how there has been cougar sightings close by where he lives (i hunt his property). And the next morning i went out early to hunt and there was no moon so it was extremely dark and my flashlight died on me. You can say I had a arrow nocked and my buck knife at hand.

There was the time I saw Big Foot, I climbed down from my stand and shared a sandwhich with him. Does this count ?[8D][8D]:D.

The only truly scary experience I ever had was while bowhunting by myself one evening........while walking back to the vehicle in the dark on an old abandoned blacktop road, (scary enough setting) I had (I assume) a bear parallel me for the entire 1/4 mile trip. [:-] I would just catch glimpses of a big shadow every now and then and had to endure a bunch of woofing and jaw popping the entire way. It never got any closer, just followed the whole way at the same distance just in the woodline. I was crapping big old egg rolls on that one.:( Not sure what I could have done, but I had an arrow nocked just in case.

Jimmy.......I know what yo umean about quail too. Hunting in Nebraska last season I stepped on a large covey in the predawn darkness. We don't have quail here in PA. I thought I was going to have to give myself CPR.:eek:

I was goin to my stand one morning and I turned my flashlight off in the woods. I stepped on a fallen branch and it made a loud noise. Thats when something above me came crashing down through the limbs. I paniced and started haulin butt and ran smacked dab into a tree that about knocked me out! It turns out that I bumped a turkey off the roost! Scared the hell out of me, not to mention having the worst hedache I've ever had!

i actually have a "friend" that told me a wild story one time. he was sitting in his tree stand one afternoon and said he just had a weird feeling that something was watching him...(between you and me, i'm sure this guy is half goofy.) he kept hearing rustling in some brush out from his stand for about an hour or so. well, he was starting to get the heeby-jeebies i guess and started watching that brush intently as the sun went down. finally, he swears (geez, this is so funny) that he heard a "growl-type" sound come from the brush that he had been watching. :) in the low-light he sees movement and says he made out an outline of an eight-foot tall human being. LOL. he said that as soon as the light faded into darkness and he could no longer see the "thing" in the brush he literally jumped out of his 15' high treestand, bow in hand, and ran for the truck. he swears he was being stalked by bigfoot! LOL! that story makes me laugh everytime i think about it! :D:D

Dude if we ever get to hunt together we should just stay away from big fields full of quail in the dark.....thats all we need is to have to have CPR!

Anyone ever hear a bobcat squeel when she's in heat? When your in your tree in the pitch black waiting for sunrise? Trust me when I say it'll knock a few years off your life.
