Tigre is Espanol for Jaguar. And, unless I am mistaken, that is uno tigre grande!

I just finished reading "Tigrero" for the umpteenth time.Sasha Siemel was the Tigero that killed over 300 jaguars in the Matto Grasso of Brazil.He was famous for taking most with the spear but he also used a self bow for some.This was in the 1930's and'40's.

Some of the jaguars approached 400 lbs and a few were true man killers.

In the 1943 "Ye Sylvan Archer",John L Yount,reported that Sasha applied to the NFAA Big Game Committee for a big game award for this caiman he took with his bow and two arrows.

I really like his commercials. At the end of his commercial, like with his bowhunting, he always has an arm full of "babes".    :thumbsup:

Sasha Lived his later years in Green Lane PA. Where my two sons live now ( I'M about 10 miles away )His son   used to  run a museum    there   with all his stuff on display.   Went to it  a number of times in the  late 70s and 80s .  Got to handle one of the spears one time. Gave me chills,   wish it was still open for my sons to visit .  
    He  WAS  "THE MOST INTERESTING MAN IN THE WORLD "

"Hunting is hard work. There is one redeeming feature about it though. At the end of the spear it is the cat that labors, not I. He is impulsive, does not like me. Few cats do, as a matter of fact. So he makes his lunge and is rewarded with a foot or so of cold steel. His intentions were laudable, but his judgment poor." -- Sasha Siemel as interviewed in 1937 by George Brommers.

The whole interview:  http://tmuss.tripod.com/shotfrompast/sas.htm
 
And in case, like me, this thread completely bewildered you, here is a YouTube that explains it all:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U18VkI0uDxE

Brilliant observation. Keep up the good work.

I heard he could shoot an arrow into the sky and keep it up there until a deer walked underneath it.

Hate to see Siemel preserved in alcohol in this way.I have no respect for pickled playboys or those who wish they were.
