Tobey,
Sounds like fun! It's been a while since I've turned out on bobcat, usually trying to find Mr. Lion. It takes a darn good dog to trail and tree a bobcat! What kind of dogs do you have? Welcome to Moosies board, glad to see you here!

Boomer,
This is the only lion he has killed. He has been with me when we treed others though. In fact this is the only big game animal he has killed. I feel kind of bad that we don't get to hunt togather too much. During the elk season we are usually swamped guiding hunters and the...
Debbie,
Here is pic of some ewes and lambs, this is not the picture I was looking for. I will keep looking for the other. I was about 15 feet away when I took this picture.

Here is a picture of a tom my son and I treed the day after Thanksgiving 2000. My hunter this day fizzled out, so we went hunting anyway. Found the track at around 10:00 AM. The dogs ran him for about three miles before treeing him in a tall pine tree. My son made a great shot on this cat...
Thanks guys,
It's a pleasure to share these photos and stories with you. I hope they cause some folks to abandon the idea that hound hunting is not "sporting." Us hunters need to stick together, whether you hunt with a rifle, muzzleloader, handgun. Together we stand, divided we fall...
Feclnogin,
That is funny! Especially the part about hangin around the rodeo grounds! LOL

Debbie,
I promise I will get one scanned and on here shortly. I am glad to hear you are helping out our next generation of hunters! We need all we can get!

B'cat,
That's for sure! I have been on too many "death marches" to not appreciate an easy catch once in a while. Just curious, on one of your posts you said you did not run cats that were going into "completely inacessable" country. Does that mean that you do not turn out on cats that are...
Here is a photo of a tom I took a few years back. I do not usually kill lions (hunters that I am guiding take the cats) but in this case, there were some extenuating circumstances.
My paying hunter and I began the day hunting an area where the ranch owner complained that a lion had recently...
Yooper,
Wish I could say I do. We usually average from 50-75% success on out guided elk hunts (except for last year). Last year, we had a rough season because of the drouth. Our average bull is a 5x5. What I do guarantee is that you will have a good hunt and we will work our butts off for...
Thanks guys, I love guiding bighorn hunters. The area where they live is beautiful with elevations up to 13,000 feet. These big rams are getting pretty hard to hunt but the ewes are usually very tame. I will post a pic of a friend hand feeding one as soon as I get one scanned...
Here is a picture for those of you who still think New Mexico is all desert! LOL This is a gentleman I guided during the 1999 sheep season here in NM. The sheep green scored 180 1/8. Jason did a full body mount on him and it really turned out nice. I wish I had one of these dudes in my...
Boomer,
Thanks again. I will post another pic here in a few days, don't want to show my entire hand at one sitting!
B'cat,
Yes, we can hunt bear and lion during the months of October, November and until December 15 although our bears usually hibernate around November 15. Yes, the dog in the...
Boomer,
Yes, many times they do begin looking for easier meals when they get old (or hungery). It is very unusual for lions to kill cattle though they have been known to kill horses, and particularly like colts. The primary staple for lion is deer. If there are no deer, they will kill elk...
Moosie,
I would love to have you come down! We have lots of bear. Our bear season runs from October 1-December 15 but I am not able to hunt them until after November 1 as we are busy with the elk hunts in October. Come on down!

Shadow,
I never found out who poisoned her. There are many feral dogs in this area and I figure someone put out antifreeze to get a few of them. The other hound that was in the same pen with Dee was also poisoned but amazingly we were able to save her. Believe it or not, the vet gave her an...
Hey Moosie,
Nice to see you back, I was wondering if you had become MIA. I just wanted to thank you for offering this site. It has definately become one of my favorite hunting sites! Thanks again.
Eric
Jason,
There is nothing like it. It is especially rewarding when the dogs are ones you have raised and trained. Some say it is better than sex, I think it is a close second! lol

Here is a picture of a nice blackie we took this fall. We had hunted for three days before coming unto this bear's track in the snow. This was an unusual hunt because we seldom hunt bear when there is snow on the ground. The track from this dude was about 8-10 hours old when I found it. We...
Almost forgot to point out the scars on this guy's face and ears. I have never seen a lion that had been in as many scrapes as this guy.
