I do not think that reclusive woodland creatures of incredible size eat Spaghettios. Just a hunch...

They probably have a bear-like diet...again, just a hunch.

Besides billy, you're the only one walking around with a .454. I doubt that he'd be impressed by my Bretta Tomcat.

billy · 10-16-2007, 07:46 AM

if you threw that tomcat at him it might make a nasty welt.....

Windwalker · 10-16-2007, 08:06 AM

I would not shoot unless it was a threat to myself or others. I also would not mention the sighting.

JBS · 10-16-2007, 08:19 AM

I might Chit, but I would'nt Choot. If past is any indicator of future, it isn't going to be doing anything but trying to escape. 'Course, we really have no way of knowing how many and what it has killed and eaten...I wonder if that might be the answer to the mystery of Flight 19?

toolman · 10-16-2007, 11:17 AM

Hard to say, do they taste like chicken? There's one for Earl, slow-roasted Bigfoot steaks w\garlic mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy, mmm mmm good!

Dallas · 10-16-2007, 11:18 AM

NO, unless it had me cornered and in fear of my life.

ArkansasHunter · 10-16-2007, 11:26 AM

toolman LMAO I guess Earl is in Dallas at the fair. Maybe when he comes back he'll have a recipe for big foot...lol.

I'm not ashamed to admit I think about Big Feets when I'm hunting...Because about 2 years ago I looked them up on the net because of a sighting here and found the report where 2 had been seen less then 2 miles from my house. I sware !!! Was it a hoax ? Probably.
Am I scared to go to the woods ? Not a bit because I'm well armed when I go. LOL

In the spirit of fair food, how 'bout bigfoot on a stick with funnel cake for dessert?

ezearln · 10-16-2007, 11:31 AM

Not yet A.H. leaving in the morning early like. I had to get a new radio put in the Olds, the Missus doesn't travel well without musica in the ride first appointment I could get was for today. Dang thing sounds really really good, bopping down the road to LeAnn Rimes and Martina McBride whoo hoo what a trip this is gonna be! Wonder if Bigfoot ham steaks would be better cubed and chicken fried or maybe marinated in teriyaki and broiled Hmmmm... Have to think on that one.

Beer Forever · 10-16-2007, 12:02 PM

The one and only time it is ok to shoot a wild animal is for food and bigfoot doesn't look to appetizing to me.

damage855 · 10-16-2007, 01:11 PM

My dad taught me early if you kill it you eat it. ( with a few exceptions like kiotis, garbage rats,ect.) so just need to decide if bigfoot falls in the exception or if I would have to eat him?

lefty o · 10-16-2007, 01:23 PM

of course a bigfoot skin would make for an excellent holloween costume. maybe i would shoot!

Lng Rng · 10-16-2007, 01:49 PM

It depends. A lot of the stories you hear about big foot, it is about him being aggressive. If I find myself facing him, ill decide then.

Sparkytfl · 10-16-2007, 03:18 PM

There'd be a bit of a chance it was just some idiot in a suit making a hoax video or something.

Either way, it would be a bit too human-like for me to shoot.

rondog · 10-16-2007, 03:43 PM

I wouldn't shoot one unless it was attacking me. Then, I'd be calling CNN. I'd want the word to get OUT, not buried.

Apollyon67 · 10-16-2007, 08:41 PM

I reckon I would have to challenge him to a game of rock paper scissors. Shoot? Naa. He ain't vermin and I can't/wouldn't eat him.

I wouldn't be too sure of that, TJ. After all, basselopes lived mostly on Pop Tarts, until they became extinct from clogged arteries.

rondog · 10-16-2007, 11:44 PM

Actually, if I saw a Bigfoot I'd probably shoot my pants.....

Despoiler · 10-17-2007, 02:27 AM

I would not shoot unless I had all of the proper tags, the game wardens are hell out here.
