Class A First-hand BFRO #8107

Ongoing encounters with a bigfoot on family property at Caddo Lake

December 1989 about an hour before sunrise Karnack, Harrison County, Texas 1 witness

Account

The witness was deer hunting alone from an elevated stand before dawn under a full moon. A large bipedal figure emerged from dense woods and walked along a pipeline clearing toward his position, then turned to face him after hearing his rifle safety click, walked backward briefly, spun around and reentered the woods. A larger tree nearby then shook violently, and after sunrise the witness and his companion found worn trails and a footprint but no clear tracks.
