OBSERVED:
I had one encounter for sure , possably a couple of more . I have grown
up hunting , hiking and camping so I have spent a lot of time in the woods.
I was reluctant to share my experiences with too many people for yrs just
because when I did , i was just amazed that people just couldnt believe
me and even gave me a hard time about it . But I really think the truth
is getting ready to come out very soon .
The one experience that really left no doubt in my mind that Bigfoot is
real happened in 2002 in Morgan county , Tn . My hunting buddy bought some
property on the border of Lone Mtn State Forest that had been owned by
a paper company for many decades and just became available (i think the
amount they sold was 600 acres, all bordering the state forest) to the
public to buy. Our plan was to build a hunting cabin on his 20 acres and
then later on he would have a house built for himself and his wife . If
I remember correctly I went a day before everyone else was to arrive because
I was off work and they werent. I believe it was late November because
it was Gun Season . Anyways I set camp after getting there that evening
around 5 , cooked some hot dogs over the fire , had a few beers and went
to sleep in the tent around midnight. Around 4 am I awoke to the scariest
sound I have ever heard in my life . Something was screaming right behind
my tent , within twenty yards. It only screamed once but I think I awoke
mid scream and it still lasted another 10 to 15 seconds . It had some serious
lungs. The only way I can really describe it is it sounded like a elephant
and elk mixed together that had been hurt and the scream ended in a very
,very low lion type growl that was deeper than a lion. That growl is what
haunts me everytime I go in the woods. Anyways upon waking I sat up in
shock and sheer terror and frantically started feeling for my rifle. Once
I found it (it was loaded) I said "if someone is effing with me , your
getting ready to get shot" I then heard about five steps of something very
large come right at me , I could hear the breathing as well . I knew then
it wasnt a person. It came right to my tent and then pissed for about 5
seconds . I think I knew then it was bigfoot , because for some reason
I didnt shoot. I think I was just scared my bullets wouldnt hurt it and
I would just really piss it off. It then walked off and I didnt hear anything
else. Of course I got up and turned the lantern back on and put wood on
the fire and did not go back to sleep. I did not put my rifle down until
the sun came up.
Additional
Info: There have also
been several other strange things happen there that in my mind , were because
of Bigfoot. My buddy said one of his neighbors just a few yrs ago (after
my experience) found there dog dead and it looked like something had tried
to rip its skin off and also my buddy had about 30 Guinnies (chicken looking
things) in a cage to help eat the yellow jackets and something had punched
a large hole in the side of the cage and they were all gone. The wire was
pushed in like it was a very large arm that did it . I actually saw this
for myself. And lastly probably in 07 I found a LARGE bedding area where
all freshly fallen leaves wher completely flattened in a very remote part
and hard to get to part of the state forrest about 500 yards from the screaming
event. The bed was at least 8 ft long and 3 ft wide , and was one object
that did it because it was perfectly flat throughout.
