lionhunter Report post Posted January 22, 2015 Not much of a story but,....., This lion was glassed up on Saturday morning by a friend of a friends friends friend. I was up archery deer hunting and got the text that a lion had been seen. I asked my 12 and 14 year old sons if they wanted to continue stalking the two bucks we were on, or go catch a lion? Surprise surprise they chose the lion. A couple of hours later we met up with the guys that had glassed the lion and a friend with some good dirt dogs.. The dogs were hiked in to the approximate spot the lion had last been seen and the race was on. About a four mile round trip, easy as far as lion hunts go, but it ended with a very happy deer hunter ( sorry don't remember the name) and a couple of kids that thought the whole thing was very cool. Good memories made by all!!! Now back to deer hunting.... Enjoy Whitey 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lionhunter Report post Posted January 24, 2015 Sounds easy doesn't Brad! Lol. The lion was glassed at 1000 yards and watched for a few minutes before disappearing over a mountain. Dogs were the only high % way. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
