Hey Squatchable fans! Today we're diving into a thrilling thought exercise shared by YouTube channel Murph’s Law. In this video, Murph discusses what weapons he would take on a Bigfoot hunt. As a fellow Bigfoot enthusiast, I couldn't help but get excited about this video! Murph starts by introducing us to Bigfoot, describing him as a missing link between Neanderthal and modern man, with an ape-like build, standing between 6 and 15 feet tall, and weighing similar to an elk or caribou. He also mentions that Bigfoot is believed to be partially ape-like and stick to the tree line, making him a cautious creature who avoids human contact. The scenario for this thought exercise is that Murph and a partner have been hired as security for a team of cryptozoologists who aim to capture and document Bigfoot. The hunt will take place in the Pacific Northwest, where Bigfoot sightings are most common. Murph then discusses the area they'll be hunting in, describing it as dense foliage, with lots of pine trees, valleys, rivers, and sticking to the tree line. He also mentions that they may have close-range encounters with Bigfoot, who could potentially be aggressive if cornered. For their team configuration, Murph suggests that his partner should be like a backup guide gun, with a shotgun like the Benelli M4, equipped with an optic like the C Romeo 5, and a match saver type reload. As for Murph's rifle, he decides to go with a semi-automatic foul rifle, like the FN FAL or a kit build, chambered in 308. He explains that this rifle provides enough energy to put Bigfoot down, while also offering semi-automatic fire and a 20-round detachable box magazine. Overall, this video is a must-watch for any Bigfoot enthusiast! Murph does a great job of discussing the weapons he would take on a Bigfoot hunt, and it's always interesting to hear the perspectives of fellow Bigfoot believers.
