It's not photoshopped. The guy in the photo is Jim Hackiewics and he's a friend and hunting partner of mine. The lion was called in and killed in Washington state by a client of his. Jim isn't exactly a huge guy so it makes the lion look bigger than it is, although it is a very good lion. It's no world record or anything.

Here is the article right from the B&C site.
TROPHY WATCH - ARCHIVE - DETAILS
Roy Hisler, WA 2002
Washington Cougar Makes the Email Rounds January 22, 2008This photo was posted on Trophy Watch in 2003 and again in 2004. It seems the photo has been regaining new life as the email rumor mill starts up again. A few years ago it was rumored to be from Kansas, Iowa, Texas, and Pennsylvania. This time it was taken by a deer hunter in Missouri while it was stalking him in his stand.
The truth is that it was taken in King County, Washington in December 2002 by Roy Hisler with one shot from a .30-06. His partner, Jim Hackewitz, used a varmint call to bring in the big cat ? taken within 6 miles of Bellevue, Washington (a major suburb of Seattle). The cougar was accepted into the 25th Big Game Awards at 15-7/16.
