TIME: N/A
LOCATION: Benton County, Mississippi
TERRAIN: Swampy
OBSERVED: Cypress tree torn up 71/2 feet up the tree . I am 5/11 with my arm reached up as high as I can was scraped up,and I have long arms. Not sure toward the creek for a split second thought seen a small flash of black. Happened so fast not sure through some cane and brush by the creek across bottom about 150 yards away. I was in a camo hunting blind foot of hill overlooking bottom in front of scrape on tree. Before I was using doe deer call and rattling horns and spraying deer estrous scent from aerosol can. Heard crashing sounds from creek at the base of hill I was on. Something climbed the hill behind me made a loud sound as if a man cleard his throat. I thought at the time another hunter. No one was parked or in the woods with me. Hunted evening loud knock on tree 50 yards away sound like wooden bat hit tree soundedall the way up tree.
Additional things: Wood
knock behind me. I had another encounter 20 years ago same
county about 15 miles from this spot.Two very loud roars not
screams like he did not like my presence sound so loud
apapeared rattle inside my body. Sound like Wwwaaaaaaaaahhhh
one two ridges away 30 seconds later within 50 yards away. I
ran out of woods fearing for my life!
Activities of Witness: Hunting one occurance fishing the
next.
Description of Creature: No conclusive evidence of sighting
very close sounds and knock on tree.
Other Notes: Hunting calls seem to draw in action since two of the three times I was using animal calls. Doe call and distressed rabit .Rabbit call used at night
Other (Informational or Encounter History in the General Area) Notes: One when I was 12 back in early 80s that I did not mention using predator call behind grandmothers house. Animal so big you could hear footsteps 40 yards away this was not limbs breaking actual weight of the foot. Two dogs growling hair raised on their backs,other farm animals in area going nuts something big spooked me ,my dad,other animals. I have had 3 encounters in my life within two counties about 40 miles between all encounters I have yet to lay my eyes on a bigfoot that im sure of but I truly believe they exist.
