Congratulations that's a rare trophy with a bow.
Cat meat is very good eating by the way.

Had a great opportunity for a bobcat early in November but unfortunately the season did not come in until December 1. Had to pass on a 5 yard shot. One animal I've always wanted to take with my bow. Congrats on your success and thanks for sharing. I'm jealous.

Beautiful cat. And yes, they are elusive. They get a pass at my place for some of the same reasons that you mention. Their numbers are low enough that they aren't frequently seen, and the hogs, coons, and coyotes are a much bigger problem. Had this one at 7 yards last weekend, bow in hand, but it was 40 by the time I got my phone sorted out.

Thank you gentlemen....
The coveted opportunity was purely a surprise gift.
The bobcat will be honored with a very nice mount. He is already with my trusted and skilled taxidermist who has mounted over a 100 bobcats. Moved into a new home on the farm in September.The bobcat will be the 1st addition to the greatroom which is reserved for harvested quarry from the farm.

Congratulations, great shooting!
I almost got a shot at one last weekend.
He was slipping through about 50 yds away. I started lip squeaking at him, and he turned towards me.
He got within 30 yds and locked up. I guess he realized the squeak was coming from 20 ft up a tree and lost interest.

dear gawd it looks like a hatchet wound!!! that's a tough one to beat though I've been in the woods for 41yrs and I've yet to see a single bobcat,,, saw a porcupine once and saw a albino coyote once but still trying to spot a bobcat before my time here is done...
