The ones that go with me and have seen them will not go with me again?? I would NEVER even think of charging anyone to go with me. I am a former state police officer and a US Army veteran and believe in doing things right and protecting the living. These "forest people" look and sound human to me.

So if you want to look for bigfoot just go. Plus what do you thing the chances are of seeing or finding any thing with a group of 50 or 60 people, really. Let us not forget what the difference is between an amateur and a professional, a pro. gets paid. Most of these people that claim to be professionals or experts are self proclaimed as such. 300-500 bucks seems like a lot just to meat some one the likes of moneymaker. or any one else for that fact. Oh I almost forgot, how to pick a place to go by listening to eye witness accounts. try this get a map and spend some time on the net reading accounts, so we read the account we put a pin in the map, we read the account we put a pin in the map.

It is VERY obvious they have never hunted, nor spend any time in the woods, save for a couple of hours with a film crew. None of them could track a rabbit in the snow, let alone an animal that knows they are hunting them. Does anyone really think an animal that has ANIMAL senses would go anywhere near them. They need to spend a few thousand hours hunting whitetails so they know what SHY means. They all act like twelve year olds in the woods, and I wouldn't take a one of them into the wilderness for fear of being sued for their stupid mistakes.<br />IF Bigfoot exists then it needs to be hunted and tracked by professional hunters, not loudmouth amateurs that haven't got a clue how to act in the woods.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925104810508047182.post-1129375745204873202012-02-02T18:27:43.203-08:002012-02-02T18:27:43.203-08:00Mr. Dyer was on our Expedition in Paris,TX..Fun Gu...Mr. Dyer was on our Expedition in Paris,TX..Fun Guy..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925104810508047182.post-72869644712500863022011-12-23T09:32:05.867-08:002011-12-23T09:32:05.867-08:00Anon from BFRO here.

He works on the TV show. There's a different organizer for every state -- locals who know their very areas well. A lot of people come away from BFRO expeditions saying they heard or saw a bigfoot. Maybe they did. Maybe those locals know where to go, so it doesn't even involve Moneymaker anymore. Do you think he directs them all to fake things on the expeditions?

There was never any suit and the entire sordid allegation is ridiculous. Like it or not like him or not Matt Moneymaker has always been one of the best at what he does- he would not be within a mile of any suit.<br /><br />The situation was not handled well though and the whole thing should not have happened. You all saw Jim LeBus on this blog. He is harmless and does not mean to cause any trouble. He kept telling people to give him their belt knives so he could throw them away and then talk about why you should carry a bunch of different knives. The pistol remained holstered and he eventually left. It was the same night of his BigFoot story- he just said private property instead of park when he talked about the location and that and the fact he thought it may have been someone from the party is why he did not fire.<br /><br />Read the rules of the BFRO Forums- you only get banned when you use offensive language. As far as trying to control what is said this is simply not true. This site is owned by the BFRO and people often criticize them. Look at the Finding Bigfoot Banner above negative comments about the BFRO are not just taken down. The only comments ever removed involve the use of profanity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925104810508047182.post-79288012208165158162011-12-22T14:56:05.145-08:002011-12-22T14:56:05.145-08:00Hey Go Away!

That's what I see on the BFRO's public forum. <br /><br />Usually it is a new participant who writes up the post-expedition report. Are you saying that new people are instructed (and/or threatened) by someone(s)in the BFRO to misrepresent what happened on an expedition?
