I got a bobcat I need to laydown. I need advice!
« on: December 21, 2013, 12:44:06 PM »
What can I do to increase my odds of smacking a bobcat? I have one that is periodically killing my chickens. I have a game cam out but have not seen him yet, A friend used scents and got one?

 Just trying to better my odds on smacking this little devil.
The deer are exactly where you find them, and no where you dont!

It'll be tough getting him to commit to something other than a live, squawking chicken.

I'd recommend getting a picture.  Have you seen tracks or otherwise confirmed it was a cat and not a skunk, fox, weasel etc. ?
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

Ive seen him in the flesh. I was leaving my property and he was not far from the chicken pen, had no chance to shoot. The last chicken I found dead was ripped in half. I have also seen coyotes and will gladly shoot any of the lot that come in. Just need to get it done.
