Another successful Cougar stand.
« on: April 12, 2024, 10:32:08 PM »
I’d just barely gotten home from work and saw that the neighbor had posted on Facebook that they had just seen a cougar 15 minutes ago. Their post was only 28 minutes old so I jumped in my truck and headed down the road!
Pulled off in a small pull out on the county road and walked a short distance in the timber and placed the call on the opposite side of a small clearing at the base of a hill. The cat was spotted on the opposite side of the county road that I was on but I’m familiar with the area and new I was with range and most likely in front of the cat.
She came in at about 15 minutes of calling.

Sorry for the sun glare on the video but you’ll see her emerge at about the 2 minute mark in the upper right hand corner of the screen.

Weighed in @ 86lbs and I’m guessing she’s an older cat.

Wow! Way to go.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Good job. I have a real cat problem on my property near Conconully. I need to try calling. What is the sound on your Fox Pro and what is making the movement for the decoy? Its more movement than I have with my little one. Is it attached to the caller or remote?
