I was told the 40 acres my father-in-law owns in coffee county and i am the only person hunting it, is the land the original settlers lived on years ago and an old man still living near property said his grandpa told him when he was little that the settlers are buried on property and i have looked for gravesite, but not found them. Walking out at dark one night, i keep thinking about a spirit telling me to look in this certain area and i would find their final resting spot and can preserve it for them. This is the same spot that the old man showed me he remembered his grandpa telling him they were buried. I still have not found any markers or sign of a gravesite, and wonder if they could have been relocated by the state years earlier. I always think about this everytime i walk around in the dark out there.

Last year i was camping on the bank of Lake G with the wife and kids. About 1 in the AM, my wife is shaking me. She said somethin is out there. I told her it was prob a possum go to sleep. She said to possums scream? Then I heard a shrill call. I was thinking it was some sort of crane. Then I heard it running through the woods making the same scream and getting closer. Dummy me didnt have a flash light, only a pressure lantern. I had to light the lantern and wait on it to warm up to get bright. About that time, right through our camp, came a huge armadillo screaming and making all sorts of racket. All i could do is laugh.

Never been really scared in the woods. The place I hunt has an old cemetery on it with 6-7 grave markers, and I've hunted right beside it. Never gave it much thought. It's also right down the road from the State Cattle Ranch, and sometimes I would wonder if a convict escaped and was watching me in the woods. I was in a shooting house one afternoon when a big storm hit. I thought the shooting house was going to be blown down, so I laid down in the bottom of it until the storm passed.

There was an incident when my nephew took a friend of his hunting and he called my nephew from his stand and made him come get him. He said something came out in a field that he didn't know what it was. He was shaking he was so scared.

If you are talking about the cattle ranch close to lock 5 I saw something big black with a long tail. I saw the eyes with the lights on the front of the boat hit it with a spotlight. I'm not going to say either way what I think it was but I know it wasn't a dog.
