Lion hunters

[muskrat]

Any of you guys hunt lions w/hounds? I've been thinking that I'd really like to give it a whirl, and hopefully get my "host" some publicity via a magazine article..

I am pretty sure Josh Epperson uses hounds. Most lion hunters will tell yo that is the only way to do it.

Check our Josh's website. He has some lion hunting video clips on it.

Here is the link to his website: Rimrock Outfitters

That's a nice website you have Josh.

One of the better outfitter sites I've seen.

From the sounds, (rifle elk page gave me goosebumps) to the videos, I really enjoyed it.

 

I've always wanted to tag a lion. Buy my tag every year. Slowly getting to the point that I'd pay to hunt with hounds. Now I know who I'll call when the time comes.

 

BTW, that hound/lion fight pic is amazing!

Hey thanks man! We've worked hard to keep the site somewhat original. We had a hunter kill a lion about 5 weeks ago and I've got the video so I'm gonna have to work into a small clip and put it on there one of these days soon.

 

That lion/dog fight was on the cover of Full Cry magazine back in the late 80's, pretty awesome shot that my Dad took.

On the subject of lions, My brother had a successful unit 9 client sitting about 30 yrds from his skinned and quartered bull while he went for the truck yesterday. A lion walked up to a hind quarter and started eatin'. The hunter( from CA) started taking pic's then stood up and yelled at it. The cat charged forward about 5 yards to him. The hunter threw the camera down and started screaming and throwing rocks at it to finally make it leave. I think I would have been pointing a rifle instead of a camera, but I wouldn't have gotten it all on film either. This happened yesterday AM and was too close to the park fence to bring in the dogs. As soon as I can get my hands on the pic's, I'll post them. I guess he did take pic's of the cat in mid stride towards him!!! Glassed up a few cats already this year, here and in NM, I think there's quite a few out there!

The problem with Josh is - that I have nothing to offer him! He's a writer too, and has probably had more stories in print than I have!

 

 

I need someone that I can work a deal with

 

 

Very cool site, Josh
