I saw one when I was 15 or 16 on a camping trip with friends.There was a couple of us and we were pretty deep in the woods,not near anyone.we kept hearing noises{brush moving} so we went to investigate.We formed a static line and started driven the woods,about 100yds in something big,I mean BIG fell/jumped out of a tree.(I have hunted cone before and this was no coon either!)needless to say we all made hast back to camp in .....well a unorganized frenzy.
We hundled around the fire the rest of the night hoping we would'nt run out of fire wood.AT first light me and one of my best friends{now a Marine} went to get more fire wood there was still a pretty bad fog out,and while walking down a gravel road I "felt"something watching us.looking to my right,I saw through a light fog and about 20-30yds away a light brown creature walking parralle to us completly silent like a ghost and staring right at me and then I saw its eyes,pure black,dull black,my friend looked up to see it and at the same time we both ran like heck stopping only when we came to a lake,haiding by a rock with a view to watch all ways to us we assessed our situation and weapons,I had a BUCK Mentor knife and he had a 12 inch survival knifeafter sitting for 20min. we made our way back to camp and we all left. |

I am from Southern Oregon. Now unfortunatley most of the big foot sightings come from the Pac NW - esp OR. There is this one dumbass I saw on TV a couple weeks ago that is on the radio talk show circut cuz he saw bigfoot.
If bigfoot really did exist, someone like me that spends way too much in the woods, woulda whacked his ass a long time ago. |

Whacked his ass!?! Bring it on! Treetop, You been messin' with my sister!? I've seen your picture. What the hell was she thinking? Must have been drinking again. Backwoods tramp! Lordtrader, Oh yeah, I can procreate! You ain't lived till you had a Bigfoot. Just ask Treetop. Generally, we males are quite solitary, prefering to remain in isolation until mating season, which starts right about now. Come on out to the woods. I'll show you a good time! |

ROTFLMAO Ssquatch!
I have a sister who swears to this day she saw one walking on a deserted loggin road about ten years ago. She was with her boyfriend, they saw it as they drowve up, it jumped off the road and ran up a steep hillside. - Nope, no hair or footprints - they were to scared to be reasonable. Oh, and her boyfriend of the time had the rep to drop acid, but not her. I still don't beleive she saw one. But I'd like to beleive in them, makes for interesting campfire stories. (I'm thinking of a new story now. The dating game, staring Treetop and Sasquatch's sister...) |

Yorec,
That's really not all that funny. What's really funny is Sigman squatting in the bush with a knife in his hand preparing to do battle with me. ROTFLMAO! I'm 9'6" and weigh 700 lbs. I can bench press a Dodge Ram crewcab. The only reason I didn't walk into their hiding place and have my way with them was the smell of human urine. We can't stand it! So if your ever in the deep woods and you want to avoid a Bigfoot attack (especially during the mating season) just urinate on your sleeping bag. Guaranteed to cause your friendly neighborhood Bigfoot to avoid you like the plague! |

Well, LT, you have moved to the Sasquatch country. From the "Goatman of Lake Worth", to the "apeman of Lake Buchanan", East Texas woods are full of stories of large, smelly,fleet footed creatures. Documented sightings are recorded back to 1945.

I just find this Bigfoot thing hard to believe for a couple of reasons.1st--Why has there never been a corpse or bones found? 2nd--With all the good ole boys(me included) out in the woods why has nobody ever shot one?Don't know about you but I can't think of a better conversation piece than a Bigfoot head up on the wall.

I've only known of one credible, that is to say not a kook, person that claims to have seen a sasquatch. And after spending a large portion of my 40 years in the woods of the Pacific NW I've never seen hide nor hair of big foot that weren't hooked to a man. You'd think, if one was inclined to think about these things, that for as many folks that roam around the hills and carry adequate shootin irons with 'em that we'd have had a sample by now. Especially since some of the reports say that they've been chased or other such nonsence. He/she would chase right into a 45 acp or 44 mag with me. Don't care if it's a grizzled bear the 44 has a tendency to take the chase out a 'em. I think alot of folks just want their 15 min of fame and thats their way to get it. And as for the person I knew that saw something, well, she definately saw something and I trust that but one footprint or tuft of hair does not a sasquatch make. There's lots of strange things that go on in the forests and you just never know. [smoke]

Real ,Id say very possible.Lots of people with guns have reported seeing it.When asked why they didnt shoot it they said the eyes had a intellegent look to them.Why havent they found a body?Well if no ones shootin them the must be dying of old age.If there intellegent they may go off to die alone.The areas they are suppose to inhabit is pretty rough in places,besides how many deer elk corpses are found.it would stand to reason that there are less than 1% of them than common big game animals.nature has a way of converting things back to the land.
In 1976 between Canyonville and Roseburg I heard something yell/scream that did not sound like any animal or human.It sounded very BIG. |

One time I was on a 6 day camping trip. Well the second night me and my friends woke up to this thumping sound. It started out slow like a thump every two second then it increased to really rapid within about five seconds. It would quit and then repeat itself about a minute later. We stayed up all night. I had a min-14 at the time and put the 40 rounder in. My friend loaded up his ak and my other friend put a clip in his sks. When day break came we hiked towards the sound. We came upon this little corral about 100 meters square. We couldn't locate the sound but it was loud. We looked for about an hour and didn't find anything. Then it stopped all of the sudden. We walked a little faster then normal back to camp and that night it started again. I was honestly scared at that point. We stayed awake most of the night and at about 4:00 in the morning Something ran by our tents. Don't know what it was, but after that the sound was gone. We hiked back to civilization the next day abandoning the camping trip.

There was some dude about a year back around my place in mid-michigan that had claimed to see a Bigfoot. It was even in the papers. He said it was walking across the road late at night dragging a deer carcass. Purportedly at some later point in the evening, he saw it again and it allegedly "hit his truck." A few days later, a friend of mine was out at his place (kinda remote, lots of woods) at night looking through his telescope. He said he heard a loud crashing sound, going through the woods and so he went inside to load up. Of course, by the time the irons were ready, the sound was gone. We're still waiting for Bigfoot to make another appearance. Can't imagine where he'd live around here. The housing is overpriced and the land is flat as a seven year old girl.

Sigman " SouthEast,down by marrietta" In the hills of S. Ohio and W. Virginia, their lurks a creature seen by few, and feared by all. The eastern word for Sasquatch is "HILL JACK" and while some may appear intelligent, many just have that "other look in their eyes". Be careful, be very very careful!

I heard some pretty compelling evidence awhile ago. Some scientist who was studying the "fingerprint" lines on the bottom of feet took a look at some Bigfoot footprint castings that were taken decades before his research. He said that they were castings of primate feet, but not any primate that we know of! I heard this on a radio show in which they were interviewing the scientist.

Look ,I know what I saw,but I don't know what it was,for all I know it could of been a guy in a bigfoot/gorilla costum.{I will exlain this in a minute}
If they are real there are multiple reasons one has not been found{some already mentioned} 1}maybe they are intelligent enough to bury there dead or they could be cannabils 2]how many times do you see dead animals in the woods?rarely unless hit by a car on the road.Big foot are supposed to weight in at a couple thousand pounds if I rember the documentary right so you '92 Ford Tempo ain't gonna take one outta commission.{and anyone hitting on might say they hit a deer to avoid lookin like a kook}. 3]supposibly they live in deep woods that are'nt easily acessed by man so if a bigfoot dies in deep woods not frequented by humans,{its natural colors blending in also}how many are you really going to see? How many deer are there?how many dead deer do you see? so if this animal is so rare and dies ya probaly are'nt gonna find it |

"The creature is believed to be 7 to 8 feet tall, weighing 800 to 1,000 lbs." I don't think I'd count on a 223 making a one shot stop on that!!
My father surveyed an area very near where the famous video was taken shortly after it was published. He told me a story that goes something like this: Shortly after setting up camp one of the younger new guys found a copy of a recently printed copy of Time Magazine on the dashboard of the truck that had an article on the video. He asked my father where this area was. So my father says, "come over here" and points down off of the ridge and says "right down there". Dad said that night just like it had been planned a pair of black bears came into camp and snorted around. Needless to say the new guys were scared stiff!! My Old Man also told me that the country down there is so steep, thickly wooded and generaly impassable that the Native tribes didn't even go into that area. |

Water Dog,I don't know how effective turkey loads would be on a big foot,and I personaly would have no desire to find out, in case he was in a bad mode and me ticklin him with tugsten shot only worsened his disposition! [:D]
On a TV docu. the looked at all the evidence and got a hollywood spec. affects artist to make a suit and dress up and go walking at the place where that film{in '70's I believe} was shot.the re-filmed and the dude looked just like a big foot! I would of crapped myself if I would of ran into the dude in the boon docks somewhere! Granted this was with a pro and a couple thousand dollars in a costume.And not many hoaxers would have the money or ambition to go that far{wich also does'nt explain all the earlier sightings this century,not have the materials avalible and all, but I think some sightings could be man made hoaxes,as in my case not firearms where allowed where we camped,therfore a hoaxer would'nt have to worry about gettin shot to much. however I think the orig. video is real,because the other guy had a 30.06 rifle with 180gr cartridges and to his death bed he swore he wasn't in on any hoax.Surely the video man would'nt put someone in danger to pull a prank like that{nor do I believe anyone in their right mind would dress up like a gorrilla with the chance of losing his heart to 180gr round} yeah I know about"hill jack" stories,our area holds a meeting/small convention every year,brings out the local nuts Supposed to have "Moth Men" around here too,but thats another story........... |

This is to funny , bigfoots aint to bad of people once you get to know them , they are a little rude sometimes...you know talkin bout I smell a bit...lol
On a semi serious note when I was in high school me and a friend of mine hatched a plan , an evil plan. You see my friend was'nt like most people , as in standing 5'8" and weighing over 300 lbs. It was'nt all fat though let me assure you , he was just a big old boy. Anyway the thought was to get an ape suit , put him in it and then proceed to Mammoth Cave National Park a well known hang out for "urban campers". Any way I would set up camp and along about the time every body was getting settled in I'd let out a blood curtling scream , my friend in the ape suit would then proceed to chase another friend through the middle of the campground. At this time with it being good and dark I would proceed to try to raise alarm and panic. It would also been a good idea to have someone video tape it because I'm sure it would be good for laughs many years down the road. Hmmmm....thats still not a bad idea , I can almost see the frightened looks on the city folks faces. Hey does anyone know where I can get an ape suit to fit a 5'8" fat guy?[:)] |

You would have to have a lot of guts to be running around in a big foot suit in the woods, or you could just be stupid. I know that I am not the only one who would try to shoot a big foot. I would yell "are you human?" and if I did not get a reply I would proceed to empty my entire supply of ammo into the beast.
PS. I don't know for sure if I wait to see if you were not human. |
