Hi Folks,
I wanted to introduce myself to your community. My name is Autumn Williams, I live in Eugene, OR and I have been researching unknown hominids for almost 17 years.
I realize that many of you may be skeptical regarding bigfoot sightings in Oregon. However, MANY of the sightings reported to the Oregonbigfoot.com website come from people just like you, who spend years in the woods hunting, who are credible folks with vast knowledge of our wilderness who simply have an incredible encounter.
I would like to encourage all of you to visit the Oregonbigfoot.com website, take a look at the number of sightings in your area, and submit your own encounter if you've had one. Your personal information will be kept strictly confidential.
Best,
Autumn Williams Oregonbigfoot.com

Welcome to the site. Nothing personal, but I don't think they exist. If they did, somebody would have killed one by now. There are millions of people in the woods hunting every year and not one killed. People harvest some of the most elusive game all the time. I know that if I was ever to see one for myself it will definately be a different story. Anyway, good luck with your research!

Hi again, Thanks for the kind welcome. I wanted to address the question that seems to pop up most often: "If they exist, why hasn't one been killed?" In 17 years of research, I've been asked this question hundreds of times, usually by someone who has already made up their mind without examining all of the evidence FOR their existence (and there's A LOT... otherwise, I wouldn't have wasted 17 years of my life doing this. ). I also know that, as with most logical questions that skeptics ask, there are many good answers to this question. The first I always think when asked this question is, "Because most hunters who see them are too shocked to remember that they have a rifle in their hand." <grin> It sounds silly, but this is exactly what dozens of hunters report to me every year. They have a sighting, and are so INCREDULOUS about what they're seeing, that they simply don't think about it. Also, as you know, most hunters (at least the responsible ones) aren't in the habit of "blowing away" every moving thing they see. If you read through the reports... very CREDIBLE reports from people just like you, you'll see that this happens often. That is, when sightings occur. I've read estimates that there are over 2000 cougars in Oregon at any given time (how many times have you seen a cougar roaming around in the hills? They're elusive, too.) Sasquatch likely has MUCH smaller populations. Sightings generally occur as road crossings or by hunters... it's a serendipitous event... meaning that you can't really expect to go out and "hunt down" a Sasquatch. I've been trying for another face-to-face for 17 years. I've come close, been screamed at from yards away, but because I do much of my research at night, and my night vision just ain't what theirs is, a face-to-face encounter - PLANNED - is unlikely. Finally, there ARE reports of them being shot AT, and a few reports of one being killed. But keep in mind that the shooter may be, as several reports state, leery of bringing the law crashing down on his head... because he shot something that is so VERY humanlike. They usually leave it lay and don't say anything for years. These are a few of the explanations. There are many more. It would take weeks or months to explain what I've learned in 17 years... it's like trying to teach me everything you know about hunting in a few paragraphs. The fact is that you guys and gals are out at the PRIME times, in the PRIME areas to have encounters... and many of you do! If you've ever seen or heard anything strange in the woods, I'd like to hear about it. And sure... lots of people think I'm a little nuts for what I do... they say, "You do big WHAT?" LOL So if you're a little skeptical, I'm okay with that. I'm used to it. <grin> Best, Autumn Williams Oregonbigfoot.com

Welcome to the site. I've never seen one of them furry things, but I am of the opinion they are out there. Of all the people out in the woods it is still possible to remain hidden especially when your senses are sharper than a humans. Look forward to seeing more of your posts.

I just feel if they existed, by now some hunter would have got one. I'm sorry, if i have a gun and run into one. I'm not gonna run and hide and then tell the story. I would have to say. Shoot first. then bring it on home.

I was reading through some of are old post and this one caught my eye... I tell you I laughed my butt off reading it again. Who knows if these things are real, I sure don't believe they are... But one thing is for sure, it really ticks me off with people coming on here and advertise there site in order to get more members on there site....I tell ya ll what if you get a chance and shoot a MR. BIGFOOT I will let you put it into the big game contest...But remember if you shoot one Oregon Outdoors Nor I hold any legal responsibility.

LMAO, that was a funny thread. I don't think they exits. I'm sorry. A hunter, as I said before, would have gotten one by now.

We hunt all over Oklahoma there seems to be a lot of reports of bigfoot in oklahoma even storys of one being shot a few years back the guy claimed others drug the body off? heck i dont know but do occasionly think about it when im in SE ok I would love to run a montec through one the game wardens in the Honobia wilderness areas if you get lucky enough to draw a hunt there will tell you if one comes in to bag it and a tag will be developed. buddy drew hunt and that was what was said!!! My one hunting partner has in excess of 20 trail cams digital and film and so does every one else i know down there wy are there no trail cam pictures? every time i leave home for SE. Ok i tell every one that im off bigfoot hunting i will shoot deer and turkeys that get in the way of the great scheme of things to come but wait the day that bigfoot gets montec digestive failure. when i have him loaded in the back of the truck i will call Bill Jourdan as i belive that he would be happy to pose for a shot with me and my trophy. The owners of the bow company would probably like a photo op as well not to mention the arrow and broadhead manufactures the list keeps on going just as the residual income would.Oklahoma will not produce the next world record deer but we have a chance at another trophy that would make a bowhunter very wealthy indeed. At least that is the rumors. excuse me but i need to call fruit of the loom and hanes and see who will pay more if i can get this trophy bagged
