My first cougar!
« on: December 24, 2013, 04:53:09 PM »
Gave this 100 lbs Tom a snow nap at 100 yards as he ran away from me today.  50 gr v-max out of the 22-250 right to the back of the neck.  Out coyote hunting and and came across him sitting in the grass.  Not much of a story, but I'm jacked to have my first cat!

I must say, I am happy and mad at the same time.  Very happy for you, but mad that I have never uttered the words, MY FIRST COUGAR.  I want one so bad but for the life of me I just cant make it happen.  The hard part is when I hear the stories of guys that do kill them, it always goes like this; I was just walking in a the damn thing was just standing there.  Way to go and happy for you and all the deer in the surrounding area
