Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate. - Psalm 127:3-5

Nice cat! Congrats to the young hunter. Where did you find some snow? :) I was up the CDA river a couple weeks ago and didn't find any cat tracks but I did find lots of elk and moose so that was encouraging. Have you had much luck other than that cat?

The cat was shot 12/28/14 when we had snow! I treed another one big tom on jan. 1 and it's been pretty slow since then. My best dog treed both lions but died on jan 8th this year. Actually lost both my best dogs this year one in November and then z this jan. Was out a few days ago and all the south facing stuff was dry we hunt the river also
