Cleancut27 Report post Posted April 19, 2013 I can't tell if it is the same one that was on the camera last month but I'm just stoked I killed my first lion! Unit 34A called her in, 90 yards with a .300 win mag! Was an amazing/tiresome hunt, got off work at midnight, left at 1 AM, flat tire from 4x4ing at 4 AM, and called her in at 2 pm yesterday luckily despite the windy day. Took her to Jerry's Taxidermy in Tucson. Extremely stoked and thankful I have wanted to achieve this goal for a while now and I have learned a lot from posts on this site! Hard work pays!

Cleancut27 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 Thank you all! @Clfores haha yeah she was as excited about it as I was, hopefully she will like lion burgers as much as she liked the bear burgers! Kidso, I used an electronic call, I've been trying with a hand call but I don't think I've got the craft down just yet to be honest. Yeah the .300 win mag did a great job, she was down after about 175/200 yards.. that exit wound was gigantic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rcdinaz Report post Posted April 20, 2013 Great job! Still one of my most amazing hunts was calling in a lion and having that rug on my wall. I shot mine the same place as you high lung towards the back. I was lucky though and caught some spine and she dropped right there. What a thrill when you know they are sneaking in for a meal! She popped up about 15 yards from me, surprised I didn't have to throw those shorts out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
