Account
The witness was returning to his car from a deer blind when he smelled a strong foul odor and heard loud footsteps ahead. He observed a large hairy figure partly obscured by a tree about 35 yards away staring back for a couple minutes. The figure picked up a large object from the ground, threw it toward a tree near the witness, then turned and left. The witness waited briefly before hurrying to his car to leave.
