searching the hills

Here's one . My friend and his wife were checking on their hunting
grounds today and the were about 100 yards in the woods when they heard
a whistleing sound getting louder and louder. They both looked up and
saw a greyish colored mass about the size of a volley ball flying over
the trees. It continued on its path and they said it apeared to be
tumbleing (no smoke ) it just looked like it was a little above the
trees. I went there a tried to figure the trajectory out. If it was
traveling fast enough to whistle it had to be going fast enough to go a
ways further. but there is another mountain in its way . I think this
one may be in the valley because they said it looked like it was losing
alt. as it continued or it may be in the side of the mountain. These
mountains are more like large hills.  The trees down line blocked their
view after short time .
                          I will be checking for this on if hunting
season does not get in the way . Its not far from my house. Ironiclly my
wife was working in the yard and heard a boom and did not tell me till
after the call . My wife said it sounded like an explosion. . I will
have to follow this one up some more. How fast or slow would a meteorite
be going and still be able to produce a whisle???              Good
night  Henry
