WTG!   How about you hunt & peck us out a story.  There are some of us who would like to know how a successful bobcat hunter does it since we have no clue.

Thanks for the complements guys.
I got the cat in WV.  I have called in a total of 4 since I started calling (only 1 this year) 2 were missed 1 never got shot at. Been really trying for coyote but those critters are tough. I did manage to call some in last year a total of 4 I think with only one on the ground. 

I started the stand with some woodpecker distress about 10-15 on the volume. Waited for 2-4 min then went to the bobcat inheat about 15 on the volume then right to aggressive bobcat at same volume. Waited 5-6 min started playing the ranting red bird cat came sneaking out from some laurel stopped about 50-60 yards out on just looking up toward the call. The 22-250 found it's mark.  Total time on the stand was 15-18 min.

Thanks Scott

Thanks for the story.  I like reading the details of "how ya did it" !     That's lots better than "called, saw, bang, flop".
