My first bobcat
« on: November 17, 2012, 08:44:34 PM »
We were out coyote hunting trying to break in my new 22-250 when I got my first bobcat. We had set up our decoy rabbit at the bottom of a clear cut and had been working the double jack rabbit along with a howler. After about half hour or so out of no where at the bottom of the clear cut this bobcat jumped up on this stump and thats when I spotted him and let him have it. One shot one kill I always say!

Yeah Zack does amazing work he has been doing it his hole life. His prices are fair and work is far better than anyone else's I've seen. It may take him a year sometimes to get it done but its well worth the wait for the high quality work.

exactly what i was told tonight, that it would be a bit of a wait, but to me thats worth it for quality work.  who knows tho may not get anything worthy of a shoulder mount for a few more years.
