A listener writes “Dear Wes, After many years of listening to your show, I feel like it’s finally time to share what happened to me when I was 13, back in 2000.

First off, let me tell you that I am an avid hunter. Hunting is one of those things that gets passed down through generations, and it holds a special place in my heart. I’ve experienced a lot of loss in my life, so my heart is sensitive. Hunting, especially hunting with my father, is one of the more positive things I do with my time to help me cope with the losses life can sometimes bring.

Chasing whitetail bucks is what my dad taught me, although nowadays, it’s nearly all mule deer.

My most recent encounter was probably around 2018–2019. I’ve been bluff charged and escorted out during my main encounter, where I saw the head and shoulders of the creature. I’ve also seen vividly clear tracks in the mud, had a rock thrown at me after a brief sighting of something following me and my dad, and encountered a canopy like structure in the main canyon where I hunt. My family has seen it, too.

I’ve heard what sounded like gibberish chatter and owl mimics while out with my middle brother. We also came across a tree structure, followed by wood knocks. I’ve seen a ball of light with my dad and brothers down in our main canyon while driving home one night after hunting all day. I’ve even heard and felt something charge right past me without seeing a thing, just like you and your brother did.

Let me also add that I’m fond of the area you’re from. I once moved to Battle Ground and lived with a wonderful Christian family while I was in eighth grade. I’ve also spent a lot of time at the Clark County Fair. My father was an ag teacher, and I showed cattle and sheep mainly in Washington and Oregon. (Just a little bit about me.)

I’d really like to get these encounters off my chest, if you’re interested in hearing from me.”
