Critter Report post Posted August 31, 2013 Holy crap scooter... that's crazy. congrats on a nice cat. I know first hand what you went through. I had something similar happen except with a lion.... I've never told the story on here before but I wasn't pred calling, I was just sitting and glassing for deer in the open on a knob and turned around and a lion was right behind me just staring... scariest thing that has ever happened to me. I completely flipped out, grabbed my rifle, it ran off down the hill. Had I had 2 more seconds I would've gotten a shot off. so close. This lion was darn near breathing down my neck when I turned around... he was just curious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alexjh1 Report post Posted September 6, 2013 Very nice, and I didn't need slippers from my trailer up in unit 8. It was beautiful. Rained pretty bad on Saturday so enjoyed coffee with the family and friends. Sunday wonderful and cloudy, chased some little velvets but couldn't get close. Monday the sun came out and was pretty warm. now we are back...miss it already. Nice cat, I had one come in close a few years back from my blind, before I could knock an arrow he was gone like a ghost. I never heard that bugger, spooky.
