I have just started hunting mountian lions in southwest Texas. I spotted one a few months ago and our local expert has reportedly seen 14 over the last 15 years on our lease. He even claims to have seen a black one. There are 4 areas over the 13,000 acres where these cats have been seen, so we think we know where to setup. Shooting lanes are very limited and we keep our rifles ready to shoot quickly, hunting on the same stand, facing opposite directions.
My partner and I are now dedicated to taking a lion and can talk of nothing else. We have heard that cougar in-heat urine works well as a lure.
Has anyone else heard of using this and if so, where can we get it?
We also plan to start using the Phantom Predator Call and bait with a freshly killed pig or javelina. Is the use of all of these at the same time a good idea?
We are also receiving a lot of flak from our fellow hunters. One said we have a better chance of winning the Muy Grande contest, that's one of the most famous big deer contests in south Texas. So we would get a lot of satisfaction with a success, in more ways than one.
Thanks. This board is absolutely the best that I have come across.
