Thats why quota's are full and hound guys don't get to hunt their permits. That response surprises me coming from you.

we aint talking about hound permits, but i see where that could be confused. never shoot a female on a hound permit till the total harvest and female quota are equal, i dont think i would ever shoot one with hounds, atleast not intentionally

but on a general tag i say shoot anything big or small, and if your in a hound area dont report it........

Maybe I'm wrong, but don't they all go to the quota if you're in a unit with hound permits?

[Houndhunter]

not sure im getting what your saying, but if a cat is shot in a hound unit than yes it goes on the quota even if it was shot before the hound season opens. all cats killed in the unit go on the quota, thats why if you shoot one on a general tag in a hound area you dont report it or atleast say you shot it in another area

No...you got exactly what I was saying.

What exactly is the problem with a guy shooting a young cat as long as it is legal?   

Someone explain this method of thinking to me. Is it just because it leaves less for you? If I hunt early archery and you hunt modern do I have to pass on every big game animal I see just so you can have a poke at it later? Just sounds greedy to me. If a guy has a shot at a cat I say more power to him. For most hunters without hounds encounters are so far and few between, mostly opportunity kills. Why would you want to deter someone from harvesting what is for most a once in a lifetime opportunity?
