ozarkpaddler: "FUNNY (LOL)! Sounds like my "Bigfoot encounter" here on the farm several deer seasons ago.
I had driven to my hunting spot on the back of the farm because I'd overslept. My spot was about 1/2 mile away from a little grove of cedars where I parked the truck. It was just daybreak and foggy. I had slowly walked about 50 yards where there was a field on on side and a creek and some deep woods on the other. I noticed a slight movement in the shadows and there he was....about 50 yards away, standing on two legs, a shadowy, hairy figure. I I've read those accounts where in this situation many people want to get closer for a better look? NOT ME, but I was too scared to move back towards the truck. All at once, in one motion, it silently went down on all fours, turned around and was gone! I had seen my first BEAR on the farm! Bigfoot or bear, however, I had too much adrenalin coursing through my veins to even think about shooting a high powered rifle. Everyone was a little skeptical but a few months later my neighbor "Shot" him a few times on the game cam. But at first sight....."
LOL....that'll get the old ticker going alright!
