2014 Cougar Hunt

t_boneking · Dec 27, 2014

This year I was able to convince my dad that he should apply for the cougar hunt since I have a buddy that has some property, that he said we could hunt. Much to our surprise my dad was able to draw the tag with very few points and the hunt was on. We decided to hunt with Cold Nosed Outfitters and we made the right decision. On Monday we were able to get this great cat. We cut the track in the snow and and after a fairly short and intense chase that cat was up a tree. My dad was able to put an arrow in the cat and the hunt was over. It ended quickly but it was a great hunt none the less. The cat weighed 170 pounds and has about a 15 inch skull. It was a great experience and I am glad I could share it with my dad.

Great story and great guys to make some memories with.
Here is a couple pictures of the track that we started, after working it up on the south facing slopes we were able to get him jumped at the head of a canyon where he had been laid up.
It was a great day with a great ending.

This is what we started:

This is what it looked like once the dogs were anchored:
