No I am not joking. I want to go hunt the BF (AKA Big Foot). I am not a total believer in BF but why not try "No BS" approach and try to "Shoot first take pictures later"? Back in 96-99 I used to camp and hike in the area which is famost for numerous BF sightings. Back then I did not know that and when something was running around our camp at night I did not pay much attention and went to sleep soundly in my truck. I thought is may be just coyotes making noises. Later I found several reports of BF encounters from that same area. One from exactly same spot where I used to camp! It made me think about going back there and try to shoot that illusive big monkey if it does exist. If some well armed, with some balls resident of Washington or neighbouring states want to come along I would love some company. I want to drive my F-350 with camper upthere, put on recorded BF sounds and see if anybody shows up. If he does stuff him with enough led to bring him down. Needless to say I expect countless replies ridiculing my idea and countless offers of tin foil hats. Thanks ahead of time. If anybody is seriously interested let me know. I do need NV scope though. Anybody wants to sell me cheap used Gen II rifle scope by any chanse? By the way if you wonder who the hell I am, I am Volk from Gunsnet if anybody stops by that site too. |
Area is rather remote. Likelyhood of somebody in the monkey suit is next to 0. Bear should look distinct enough to recognize it. I need NV scope though. It is not illegal to shoot BS exepr in Skamania county. It does not exist after all. For those with no weapons larger than AR. I could loan one DSA FAL (unless prohibited by law) to one guy. I am only looking for one, two at the most ballzy guys that will not shit pants and run at the sound of one broken twig on the ground. Large group will scare BF away. |
Might get with some of those Minuteman guys. They'd probably love to help. |
I used to be big into the Bf thing. I guess it could exist. there area few groups out there who claim to activeley hunt the things. One group is called the GCBRO they claimed to have shot one in the gut and have bags full of tissue samples. There is another group what claims to be the "only" scientific group out there but they are more into eco tours for big $$. BFRO is the name. I came into it a skeptic and feel it could be real to a certain degree. Certainly not as widespread ash the hardcore beleivers would make you think. That foorage I always thought was a hoax sure looks different when picked apart. Over 4 different people claim to be the one in the suit. At close examination you can see what appears to be muscle movement, big boobies, scars and stuff like that. Pretty interesting. Hey if they are real, I agree that its gonna take a body to prove it. I wonder if I came across one and I blasted it, what woudl I do with it then? |
LOL. Would make one hell of a full-body mount for the trophy room! I could get him mounted with his hands out cradling my rifle with a "WTF!!!" look on his face. |
Kewl! I've always |

YEEHAA!!!!! If was closer I would be up for it. Nothing like a nice extended walk in the woods to relax the body, mind and soul. Of course this hunt begs the question "What would be the best gun to hunt bigfoot with" thread complete with poll. Of course since bigfoot is an american icon (yeah yeah yeah, I know all about the yeti et al.) I would have to go with the classic M1 Garand complete with bayonet. heck, line 'em up just right and you might get a twofer with just one shot! Since BF is not a game animal would it be legal to use motorized vehicle to pursue? (I am thinking ATVs to drive them to a kill site) |
How's the popcorn coming?
