I hear ya Walt.  Those are some good folks.  Never know, we may be calling them some morning lookin for hounds and have the pleasure of watching them work again.  I wish I could've taken more video during the chase.  But it's hard to record or snap pictures when your falling down so often.  :D  I dont think my camera would have faired so well.     :D  

Always gotta leave something for next time anyway.

Great story, Walt.  I'm with Mickey in that you should submit that one, somewhere!  

Hey Lenny and Randy...I'm gonna "borrow" a couple of those pics for my show, if you don't mind.  

Once again, nicely told...and Randy, I do want a copy of that DVD.

Hi Calvin,
In case you are wondering, I haven't forgotten your bow.  I put the sheep horn tip overlays on this week and it is 90% tillered.  However, I do need a shipping address, send me an email with your shipping address.

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Before I forget, credit needs to be given to needs to given to my hunting partner Lenny Brown for all of the pictures that are posted, except for one.  Randy Morin took the first picture of the treed mountain lion.

Mr.Francis, I'm sitting here on this darn computer, and it is now officially 2007(rocky mtn time), and I am completely blown away by your awesome hunt! I really don't care for this computer/internet thing whatsoever, except for Tradgang! Thank you sir for this inspiring hunt, your words concerning your shot spoke volumes, it is so hard to put those feelings into words, you did the cougar justice! Many Blessing, T

Hey Doug!  :wavey:  Did you eat any of your cat yet.  Does it taste like Chicken?

Mark, I'll be looking into gettin copies made this week.  I can do VHS at home but I'll need pro help for DVD. Hopefully the video/tech store at the mall isnt too backed up with X-mas video right now and they can fit me in soon.

On another note Mark, it's killin me I couldnt take advantage of your bow sale (didnt know till Sat). I want to shoot that little baby in a big way.

All I can say is WOW!  What a great story Walt, I'm with Mickey on the selfbow part, when I saw that you used that it raised this hunt to another level for me.  What a great hunt, and a good job telling and showing it too!

Yes String they are very "eatible".  Light meat.  I hope to have more in the description department in the near future.
