Cougars!
« on: November 04, 2009, 06:06:12 PM »
So the regs say you cannot shoot spotted kittens or a female with spotted kittens. Im not interested in the kittens but would take the female. Would you guys say these kittens are spotted or not!

My 7 and 4 year olds both says spotted.  seems like a pretty unbiased oppinion to me.

They look spotted to me, however each kitten accounts for a lot of elk & deer in their lifetime....so.... :dunno:

Great pics!

Pretty iffy on the spotted question.  I don't think in the field that a person would be able to determine that they were spotted.

spotted...pass.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Not distinctly spotted but indeed "blotchy".  Low light judgement call.  Broad daylight, I'd pass.   :twocents:

Wait until just before the season ends, then round up some buddies with enough tags and whack-em and stack-em.
