Think I'll spend more time this year calling cats, both bobcats and mountain lion and let the coyotes walk. It's been awhile since I called and killed a lion and the bobcats have really been playing havoc with the small game population, so the coyotes may get a free ride this year. When I mentioned this to my wife she just smiled and said "yeah, when was the last time you passed up a shot at a coyote?"
Either way John I will be waiting on the pics and stories
Good Luck
I don't know John, that would probably be just about as hard as quitting smoking. :nono:
I wonder if they got a patch for that? :wo: :laf:
I'll give odds on this one :biggrin:.
:alscalls: They already used all the good ones! ... Good luck with that for sure John!

I wouldn't want to be a coyote either, just in case.
Takeum both out Mr John, they will always be more. cc
Wish I could come down and learn from you. Look out cats!
Your more than welcome to come on down, we'll put ya up and even feed ya but I ain't sure you going to learn anything! In all the years that I been calling for lions (30+) I have only called in five and of that five I only killed one. I have had most of my success behind my friends dogs and only partial success hunting over a lion killed cow and/or deer. A rancher friend always calls when he finds a lion kill but I can only hunt over it for a day as he can't afford to have a stock killer on the ranch. I have taken three lions that way. Once while calling in the flats, cactus, mesquite and cat claw for coyotes I had one come in. It turned out to be a young tom who probably was looking to establish his own territory. I have often regretted killing him.

Me & a few ranchers and then a couple of Desert Bighorns & quite a few deer thank you! :biggrin:
Calling in & killing a Mt Lion would just be the zenith to predator hunting to me.
I wish you the best of hunting & look forward to any & all stories about it. :eyebrow:
