Footsteps near Milledgeville, Georgia (2010)

Two weeks after his friend's incident, the guest remained on his tree stand past dark and walked out alone after his flashlight failed. Something in brush to his left paced him and took an extra step each time he stopped. He drew his revolver and was followed for about half an hour, after which he never returned alone.

Rock throwing (2009)

The witness was fishing alone late at night near his hunting club property. Rocks began hitting the water and bank from across a flooded area about 50-60 yards away, followed by a sustained low roar that he felt vibrate. He left his gear and retreated to the lit compound, later hearing clicking like rocks banging together. About a month later he returned with a local researcher who found a pushed path through tules, a pressed circle, and a track measuring just over 16 inches.

They later decided the sound matched Bigfoot recordings found online.
