Was checking my yellow squash this morning and ran into this guy. I have no idea as what kind it is but he was big. I left him alone maybe he will eat a grasshopper.

I think this is what is called a wolf spider,common house spider, anyway I think they are a beneficial spider.
Life is one big playground. Be sure to ride all the rides before it closes.

Yes it's a wolf spider. They don't make any webs they hunt on the ground. They are similar to a tarantula

I would have soiled myself after seeing that spider for the first time. Spiders are beneficial to the garden though.

Looks to me like a wolf spider. They are common out in the country. They do jump and their eyes glow at night. They are intimidating, but not harmful (non-venomous).

That's a male wolf spider, Lycosa rabida. Males are smaller than females.
