Wv Bobcat taken last weekend

Hi guys.... I'm new to the forum but love what I've been reading. Great info.. Got out last weekend finally to use my new Firestorm and mojo critter. Gotta say I like them both. Anyways on our sixth stand of the day we finally called this bobcat in. Pretty neat to get to see one sneaking to the call. She didn't waste much time coming in. We were positioned at the mouth of a hollow with the wind in our face watching up in it with a meadow to our backs. Pretty much decided nothing would cross the meadow and come in behind us. She came in from our left and behind us up on a bench. I caught movement in my peripheral vision as she was about directly left from me heading up into the hollow. She cut down the ravine between her and the decoy where my buddy was positioned watching. When she stopped at the bottom where myself and other buddy couldn't see her. The other buddy made the kill shot around 60 yds.

We killed the bobcat on the property we bowhunt in Braxton County. We go down there quite a bit. This is the first year we have killed any predators. I missed a bobcat a few years back while bowhunting. We've seen quite a bit of sign and have heard coyotes for several years while bowhunting. Hopefully there will be more to come. We all live in Harrison County, Clarskburg and Bridgeport area.
