Awesome cat!  Good job!

Ummmm....I don't think so. I believe he is a member on this site and posted the pics and story about a month or so ago. If I rmember right he found a fresh set of good tracks and tracked him down. Nice cat and even a better story. 


flyguide shot it about a month ago.

Huge cat, original story and thread were great to read.  Jerry, you can't believe everything you read,.........318 lbs!? Come on!

[wrangler]

318lbs huh? maybe if it was an african lion. 

[Jerry malbeck]

Just got it in a Email from a friend , didnt know about this before then , the pic had a date of 1/17/2010 so i figured it was for real . MY BAD   I got Punked you guys .
Now for the 318 lb part. look at the size of that animal next to a 200 lb man , looks like it could go 300 to me . I was a little afraid to post this as i have seen many like it on the internet and then the REAL story comes out . I figured someone would say it was shot three years ago in Montana or Idaho .
so What did it Weigh?

[EyeGuard]

This cat weighed an estimated 140-160 lbs, on the paw... No where near 300, but a beautiful cat!

Weighed more than a tabby cat, less than a Bengal tiger.

Don't think he was chowin on the Wiskas.

[wablkandtan]

read the book that del cameron wrote on hound hunting.  he stopped keeping track after 200 lions and he only treed a few that were close to 200lbs.  300lbs sounds like someones blowing smoke.  you ever tried to pack something that big through snow?  if its 300 post a pick of it on the scale.
