Post by: NWBREW on January 18, 2010, 09:05:47 PM: 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.

Post by: couesbitten on January 18, 2010, 09:11:44 PM: Huge cat, original story and thread were great to read. Jerry, you can't believe everything you read,.........318 lbs!? Come on!
Title: Re: Huge cat taken near Ellensburg yesterday .
Post by: wrangler on January 18, 2010, 09:18:06 PM: 318lbs huh? maybe if it was an african lion. :tup:
Title: Re: Huge cat taken near Ellensburg yesterday .
Post by: Jerry malbeck on January 18, 2010, 09:20:52 PM: 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 :bash: 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???????
Title: Re: Huge cat taken near Ellensburg yesterday .
Post by: EyeGuard on January 18, 2010, 09:29:19 PM: This cat weighed an estimated 140-160 lbs, on the paw... No where near 300, but a beautiful cat!
Title: Re: Huge cat taken near Ellensburg yesterday .
Post by: tomy salami on January 18, 2010, 09:29:38 PM: Weighed more than a tabby cat, less than a Bengal tiger.

Don't think he was chowin on the Wiskas.
Title: Re: Huge cat taken near Ellensburg yesterday .
Post by: wablkandtan on January 18, 2010, 09:40:19 PM: 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. :bs:

Yes, I use the Cabela's Bivy Pack Boots. 400 gram thinsulate works pretty well but I have an 800 gram set for really cold weather.

Post by: bow4elk on January 19, 2010, 02:07:42 PM: Ok, this is getting WAY out of hand :chuckle:

My draw length is 37" but I have to get Team Mossback to hold my bow while I shoot.

And that's not my bobcat. Mine was last seen along a logging road...
