That's a long arm

I think you and H20 are talking about different arms.  Your “long arm” I believe refers to the cats arm, not the fact the hunter is “long-arming” for the pic.  I could be wrong but just wanted to toss a little water on the fire before it’s gets over heated.

Like just about everyone else noted, that’s a big arse elk and deer eating machine.  Congrats to the hunter.

There’s a guy who posted in this thread who is friends with the guy who killed the lion. It’s not enhanced. It’s not from Trout Lake. It’s legit.  There is a good angle on the photo making the cat look bigger, but like Idaho guy said, it’s a giant either way.

You can see the guy's hand on it, too. He can't be that far back.

Intentionally taking deceiving "long arm'' photos if for the guys ego and detracts from a great animal.  A great cat like that can and should stand on its own merits.

It's a great cat. Why not leave it at that? What difference does how they took the photo actually make? Answer: none.

It is a great cat.  I like the photo with him bear hugging it. 

Long arming is a time honored tradition among fishermen.  A group that appreciates embellishments and out right lies.  I know a guy that took an antelope head in to the taxidermist and gave instructions that the horns be held up off the head as much as the hair would allow.  Gotta gain that extra inch for the wall.  I don't see any difference between that and sitting 10 feet behind your animal.  Still deceitful and a misrepresentation.  Sneer if you like.  It's my opinion.

If you ask me, the people who bring up and criticize and squabble over the layout of photos are what detracts from great animals and great hunts. I don't understand what would even be the point of the debate over it. This is a great example of why people don't post photos on here. I truly wish it would stop, but I know better.

:fire.:

" 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
