well im back from montana. spend a week in unit 102 running with my hounds. we put 6 cats in trees in 7 days. I took my hoyt out to see of i could get lucky on a big tom. let one go the first day that was probly 130 pounds. ge was way up in the mt. we walked probly 3 miles in waist deep snow to get to him. But on tuesday i got my chance after a nice chase. the dogs put him up on the edge of some ledge. So we walked in got within about a 100 yards of them and the cat jumped and the chase was on. he when maybe about 300 yards befor treeing again. We hiked up the ledge to get up beside the cat and got things ready dogs tied back and took some pics and got some video befor the shot. the cat was only 16.4 yard right infront of me. But he was on the otherside of the tree. all i could see what hip and his last few ribs. so i got drawn back and slid an arrow right behind the last rib and up into hi chest. the cat jumped and came to our side of the treed so i gave him abouther just to make sure. In all that cat only moved for about 10 sec befor he fell out dead. Then the fun started. draggin him out. we had to drag him out well over a mile to the truck. but was worth ever sec. When all was said and done he was a 160 pounds and was 6'6" long. a realy nice cat. will have some pics as soon as i can
