Kansas huh? Gee i think a member just posted his Kansas hunt here. Him and his wife killed some nice bucks there.

Thats a heck of a first buck! It will ne a tall order to beat that one!. Also welcomebto the forum.

Way to go man, thats a great buck.

Welcome to the forum. Did you still come out for your hunt? If so how did it go?

I aksed my doc what he really thought about it all, he did say the flu never killed 70k in seven weeks.

I do have to wonder how bad it would have got without the masks and schools and workplaces shutting down. My guess is it would be way worse.

Those were meat hunts before the army of kids were old enough to fill the freezer. Im happy to let them do it now and build points in the meantime. Stick and string guy personally.

Keep tellin yourself that

Not enough money to spend on something i have no interest in. Offers still good to give you coues lessons any time though!

I guess i should be honored. Thanks nobull does sound fun but i just dont have an intereset in a guided lion hunt. Im hellbent on getting one myself! For what its worth, i used to think there wasnt much sport in hunting with dogs and killkng an animal out of a tree. Until i met and went out with Dale in young. Man it really opened my eyes, the amount of work, time and effort, not to mention gas and wear and tear, houndsmen put in is unreal. Gave me a whole new respect for them.

I think everyone has voiced an opinion or at least have one.

I would hate to be that deer. I sweat like a wart hog.

Very passive aggressive sales pitch. Haha, momma also started making soaps, none specialized for me yet though.

200 yards? I wish i was disabled now.

Typical chick.

Finally found the website http://www.rain-shadow.com/prod03.htm

Well maybe that one wasnt the one with the link. That's what happens when you go down a rabbit hole. As soon as I find it I will post.

Ok, finally found the vid that that had the link to the cat calls. It really caught my interest. The vid

Another vid by the same guys as last. Track in the snow....

Not one of the videos I mentioned, but these boys got it done where most dudes would have gave up. Worth the watch.

My woman responds the same way to me most of the time, you would think I'd learn the lesson but I'm much happier walk in around with racoon eyes.

That's a killer buck dude, congrats.

Looked at your profile to see where you live, noticed you are kind of new to the forum so if no one else had welcomed you... Welcome to the forum! Also wondered because i was curious how far away you were. I know an area particularly lion rich the reason being a combined amount of factors. I would love to thin them out and bring the deer back. It would be about a 3 hour drive for you. My dream is a lion with a bow and ive been watching a lot of lion videos on youtube that got me thinking. Spot and stalk though.... its not necessarily impossible but most times a cat is glassed up (it seams) they are on the move making it dang near impossible. Yes it can happen, but i would not plan your success based on spot and stalk. Another member once told me calling in a lion has more to do with knowing a lion is already in the area, via sighting, trail cam or fresh tracks. Blindly calling obviosly would be less successful. Also watch youtube vids, one had a link to different lion sounds and sold calls that really piqued my interest. I'll try and find it and post a link. My first approach would be, calling with a good electronic call (good calls are expensive) like a foxpro. They do have lion sounds you can buy, as does the website i alluded to earlier. But! The key is Calling in an area you already know is lion rich, or you saw fresh tracks or have very recent cam footage. Second approach, driving roads as its snowing or just freshly snowed. Drive slow, look out the window looking for a track crossing the road. Some obvious saftey things to mention. This a back road practice, 4x4 is a must and pay attention to the road! But once youve found a fresh track you just increased your chances big time. Follow if you want for spot n stalk because this will likely be your best chance at true spot and stalk, or survey your surroundings and set up the call. At this point i will assume you know about wind direction, thermal currents and all that. Thats basically all i have to offer, but thats how i would approach it.

Well if it makes ya feel any better... i also just did a stupid. Decided to be lazy and drive between the house and my tree with the camper instead of backing it in like i usually do. What really chaps my butt is im the guy that usually stops stupid things from happening, well.... not this time. Sucks because im listing it for sale now i need to spend a bunch of time fixing it to make it look good again. Silver lighning is i can still fix it and not have it look like crap.

Rained pretty good here in sv from around 1am ish to 5 or 6.
