thats bad arse dude. Like several on here, i would take calling a cat over a book deer, or any other animal, any day any time. We have them where we hunt, but the rush of calling one in must be insane.

Wow, most of us will never even see a Mountain Lion, much less get a shot at one. Great Job!

That oughta shut the naysayers up for a little while. Congrats on a great kill. BTW, I don't begrudge the cats a few deer. We have way to many deer and not near enough cats these days. These pics will spice up many a walk thru the woods at dusk now. I kinda like knowing I just might not be the apex predator out there.

Congrats. Make sure you contact TPWD and let them know. Here's a great write-up about these cats in Texas:

Awesome!!! That would have really been incredible had you got the cat with the bow! I've killed a few bobcats but I would love the chance to at least just see a lion. Congrats on a very memorable experience!

I'm afraid you're mistaken. That's a bobcat.

Awesome, awesome, awesome. I've seen a couple of lions, but never long enough to even reach for my gun, much less get a shot off. I can't even imagine how fast your heart was beating when it came in to your call and you were armed with a bow.

That's 1 in a million. Congrats.

Congrats on a kill of a lifetime! What call were you using? I would contact the maker of the call and show them the pics! Are you going to spring for a full body mount? Congrats again!
Oh yeah, it would be cool if you could some how, paint it black for pics, then back to it's original color, lol.

Congratulations on the beautiful buck and incredible mountain lion. No, the regulations say that mountain lions are considered predators and as such, are open year round.

I wonder how much it would cost to get that lion taxidermied?

I can only IMAGINE how your heart must have been hammering in your chest and you had the bow. What about your other buddies who didn't have anything with a full-grown mountain lion just yards from you. Man, oh man.

A book buck and a mountain lion all in the same weekend. That is a lifetime memory.

Be kind with your words, thankful to your Creator and generous with the meat from your hunt.
