I have nothing better to do than have someone scare the $%^& out of me before I crawl into a stand come opening morning, so lets hear them. Has anyone on here actually seen something they could not explain in the woods? I have and still to this day have no clue what I saw...bright moon lite morning hour before daylight; came right under my stand and stopped looked up and starred at me. Four legged, not a yote or dog...all I know is that it was bigger and made some awful grown/moan, not sure what it was but I still hunt the stand cause I see deer everytime. What ya say boys....

Was it on two feet, or down on all four?

Looked about the size of a calf...but definitly was no cow. Like I said I have no clue, just know I froze and waited. It was bow season so that made it worse.

A little over an hour before first light, I was settling into a stand in North Mississippi this past Fall. I had just turned off my headlamp when I heard something coming through the Bamboo. I assumed it was a deer coming to bed down, but as it got closer, I realized it was making too much noise to be a deer. It was a moonless night and I couldn't see anything, but something came right under my stand, forced its way through a old, dilapidated fence line and stopped about 10 yards in front of my tree. My first thought was a hog, but I have never seen one in that area nor have I ever seen any sign at all. It stood there, breathing heavily and then moved away making quite a bit of noise.
Not sure what it was, but I was glad to be 30 feet up a tree. -didn't see a single deer that day.

Best story I ever heard didn't happen to me but I'll tell the story anyway. In Dallas County AL, a group of hunters began seeing/hearing something they were certain was 2 legged and it made a deep-throated grunting sound. Several guys had talked about it at camp over the period of a few weeks saying it stood at least 4.5 feet tall and was dark in color.
Anyway late one evening it walked directly under one guys stand and is scared him so bad he wouldn't come down. After a couple of hours his buddies came looking for him and it followed them out of the woods even speeding up and grunting when they began to run. Needless to say they were still freeking scared when they got back to camp. They only told a few people until nearly the same thing it happened to someone else a few days later. However, this time when the search party went to get their friend who was too scared to get down out of the tree they were in for a big surprise. When they got out of their vehicle and called for their buddy something non-human came running grunting and raising cane the whole way. An Emu stepped out of a logging trail about 25 yards away. It had escaped from a local farm and had become accustomed to following people like cows do at feeding time.
...for the record I don't believe there are any big animals(black panthers, cougars, chupacabra, bigfoot etc...) that aren't well documented. Too many game cams and guns to not have a well documented set of pictures or kill...even roadkill.

I once saw something at Dutch Settlement that I couldn't explain. 'Nuf said about that.
About 30 years ago fellow invited me to bow hunt with him somewhere around Cookville. I left home about 2am and met him in Cookville about 4 eastern time. The first place we went wouldn't allow us to hunt that day so he took me to some public land in that area. I had only brought a dove stool because I didn't know if there would be anywhere to hang a stand.
The place we went had a big field that was grown up in cedars. I found a spot, set my stool up,turned out my light and put it in the bag on the stool.
I had only been sitting there about 15 min. (it was still dark) when something big and harry put it's head between my arm and my body!!
I was afraid to move! I finally worked my other hand into the bag and found my light. When i finally got the light on i found a big ol' coon dog!!! I was relieved to say the least. Didn't see a deer all day.
