An account in Mahoning County, Ohio

I had fed deer out on our property for about 2 years. One day my girlfriend and I were back along the gas well road that brings you about 2000 feet off the main road. I was checking to see if the deer had been eating the cracked corn I left them. Most of the corn had been eaten. I turned around to look back towards my truck and next to the gas well road was a large tree that was about 30 feet off the road. Next to the tree was a very tall, wide shouldered, very built, dark brown, hairy creature standing next to it. The creature had pushed a fairly large branch away from its face so that he could watch us. All I could do was stand there for a few seconds which seemed like hours staring back at the creature. My girlfriend finally asked what are you looking at which made me quit staring. All I could say was get in the truck.
