Armasight Predator Takes A Bobcat - 09/03/15 01:08 PM
I spied this guy as he was heading up the cart trail out of the pasture. I was able to get him to stop with the call, but could not get him to move closer. So when he stopped a second time, I took the shot. This was a severely quartering away shot.
Surprisingly, the 150 gr. Nosler Accubond bullet did not over penetrate. The bullet passed through the right hip, diagonally across the body, breaking the left shoulder, but not exiting, although I suspect the temporary would cavity is what resulted in the partial evisceration of the young tom. .308 may have been a bit much.
For 2015, I have taken 6 bobcats and 5 coyotes off TBR along with 6 hogs and after several years of working TBR, the owner is seeing bobwhite quail back at his place for the first time in years.
