In a heartbeat I would. Only a $10,000 fine. His ugly carcass is worth much more than that. Then you got the movie rights, and book deals, and ...

This almost goes against my principal of survival shooting only, but, I think it falls into the "pest/varmint control" catagory... Wonder how it tastes with onions?

I got flamed bad. But, since your asking, I would be afraid it was a hoaxer in costume. Try explaining that in court. BP

Of course I was usually on my Mtn. bike, in bike shorts, so you can see my dilema. If I had a rifle capable of stopping the big S.O.B. I'd blast his ass, ans start countin' my money!

Assuming Mr. Spock was right in his "In Search OF" documentaries, you would only see him in some deep, dark forest. If you Do shoot him, his friends will make sure that your body is never found (cause they will simply eat the evidence). You aren't just shooting one of them, you would have to shoot every othere hiding "monster" in the area just to get out alive. Why should something so powerful and stealthy permit you to shoot his buddy/family-member and then escape unharmed?! Live and let live is a better option.

Imbroglio Joined Jan 2001 Posts EE Offline USA	Posted: 10/19/2001 11:14:14 PM EDT Art Bell had these 2 weenies on the show who claimed they shot a Bigfoot years ago. They didn't want to tell where they buried the body in fear that they might be charged with murder. Their story was full of crap especially when the one guy started talking about shooting the thing with a Hornady .338 Win Mag round that didn't even exist at the time. Woo hoo!
