Lock and load

 

What state and county?

 

Ditto!!!

 

Do you think it is hunting your beef?

 

Erath County, Texas

 

Close enough to be a killer.
It'll be hunting what ever it can catch. Lost a cat the other night and all the Cats are real cautious and are not on the porch after dark and are no where to be seen.

 

Time to set the large live trap.

 

I need a live chicken!!!!

 

I never know Erath is in Vermilion Parish, What do I know about ''County's''

 

THE LION STING

The fish and game arrested this guy in 1995 for killing mountain lion's 'illegally' he was working for area ranchers who's calf crop loss rate was 94%, Fish and game kept telling the ranchers it was not mountain lions as there were only 4-5 in the area. This hunter killed more than 50 in a 3 month period. So much for fish and games numbers.

 

HK_User, I was reading about your county, Why yall keep burning down the courthouse?

 

My mums in Oregon and theve been having trouble with them there, a while back (maybe a month?) one of them took down a montain biker not far from where she lives, and they shot one that was under a camper van in the mall parking lot (well within city limits)
Getting hungry and brave

 

Old wiring!

 

You still drive cars without Titles?

 

I was just going to mention the same thing in OryGun, having seen many big Cats! For those who do not know, my middle brother was badly mauled by a large Cougar and we had to air evac him to the local E.R. 160 stitches and some nasty scars including a bad one on his face! My family hunts Cougar now!

 

Go armed or die.

 

"Instead they had hired Hendrix, a man who is as stealthy and solitary as the animals he tracks--and as arrogant and efficient a hunter, as well--to kill mountain lions as a preventive measure."

Even Mt Lions get careless, leave a trap or Tractor out in the brush and they get use to them. Heck they'll even use the trap (wire cage) as a layup to stay out of the sun. Till one day the RED Bar is moved to the action position and you don't even need bait. They lay down on the trip pan and BAM.
Start using the tractor as a Blind and you can get all kind of action, or so I've been told.

 

Yup, .308 to the head at 20 feet! Brother shot a full mag of 9mm into that cat, 12 rounds connected and still he got mauled!
That was one of most scared I have ever been in all my life, that's sayin somethin!
