jred,

Since I live and hunt near Huntsville, Alabama, I'll be looking over my shoulder now!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have read reports of others who have seen &quot;bigfoot&quot; in this area, but I've always been a little skeptical. Anyway, I have a good friend that has seen a mountain lion. My brother in law has seen some 'gators in Wheeler Wildlife Refuge (where I also hunt). The worst I've seen was an Emu while hunting (no less on Thanksgiving). I could have had the biggest T'giving bird in the country that year<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

I have another good friend that hunts close to my house (on a mountain). He has heard some unusual growling/gruntle sounds that made the hair on his neck stand up. He had his father with him once, who cannot hear very well, who also heard the growling noises. He said it is unlike anything he has ever heard, and I think it spooked him some. Oh well, If I ever see one, I'll think I would stick an arrow or bullet in it, but don't know.

THANK YOU!

To every one who has contributed so far. Esau, your input was interesting being that you accualy live in that area and have heard of sightings, our land is near, Paint Rock.

The Emu whould have just about equally suprized me! I'm afraid it wouldn't fit in the oven

If you ever do see a Bigfoot, DON'T, shoot it please. Ever sence my experience I alway carry a small disposable camera with me, you never know.

Our land in Ga. is remote and spacious and other hunters around the area and memebers of our club have spoke about these noises you have described. last season I did in fact have the spooky experience in hearing sounds simular to the ones described.

What I was I am not to sure but it was like nothing I have every heard in my 20yrs. in the woods. And yes your hair does stand up on the back of your neck!

Thank again, to all who have shared your input.

KEEP HUNTING THE GREAT OUTDOORS & GOD ALIVE, PASS IT ON!

jred,

I am in Gurley, so that is very close to Paint Rock. Truthfully, I would not shoot unless I felt endangered. The sounds my friend heard were on Keel Mountain.

Post the pic of the foot... I am interested to see it as I am sure others are as well...

i've also heard stories from people that wouldn't lie to me. as for myself i've never seen bigfoot. i dont know if i really even believe in a bigfoot but i think their is something out there though.

POST A GUNREVIEW TODAY!
http://gunreviews.to.gs

I want to believe they exist and it is quite possible that they do, it is just hard to believe sometimes that noone hast found a dead one, a skeleton or something. its still possible though and i would like t see one, just as i would like to see nessie

you can never have too many guns

I've been hunting for 27 years and have never seen a dead bear or bear skeleton in the woods. Come to think of it , I've never seen a live bear in the woods either (seen one run across road once) , and we have thousands of bears in northern Wi. As far as finding dead deer with their necks broke and body parts missing , we've had the same thing up north. I read a very interesting article written by some professor who has a theory on the &quot;dead deer & bigfoot&quot; connection. The things that seems to be the most common among the deer finds , broken neck or back , guts ripped out (not by teeth , but by a semi sharp object like knife made of bone) , legs missing and the kicker is , the only thing missing from inside is the liver. This professor's theory is they are eating the liver before a harsh winter with a lack of food. One liver contains enough protein to nourish a body for a month. He also believes the missing legs are a connection to several caves that were found in Washington containing deer leg bones that were made into tools.

jred,
That is creepy. No big foot reportings that I know of have ever been reported in Northern and Southern MN and to tell you the truth I woould rather not want to run into one. I myself have never seen one, but I believe in them. You never know what what you will see in the woods especially in a vast area that streches for hundreds of miles. I myself dont know if I would shot one unless it attacked me. I can grant you this, he would be the first one going down, not me. If someone did shoot one, they would probablly be a millionare if you think publicity wise. I like to carry a 45 long barrel myself at my side when I hunt up in the Chippewa National Forest northern MN. There have been a lot of timber wolves reported up there this year and if there is a big group of them, they will attck you. Anyways I dont take no chances. As I said, You never know what you can see out there in the woods, especially if you are deep in there.
