A bobcat is a good traditional trophy.  I got my first one last week with my recurve. I've had traditional buddies tell me they have wanted to kill a bobcat with a bow all their lives and have yet to.  Congratulations!!
It's not what you kill but how you hunt...

Classic....great story, and a great shot.

Way to do it! I have seen a few cats, but never had a chance to shoot at one. Funny about the phone call.
I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.

Good job. Thanks for your service also. Now turn that dang phone off when you are hunting..   :rolleyes:    :D

This story reminds me of a joke and congrats on the cat too.  It is a fart joke so it is funny.

Do you know why men fart more than women?????....because women don't stay quiet long enough to build up the necessary back-pressure.....

That really isn't the joke BTW.  The joke is trying not to think of this joke the next time the love of your life goes on-and-on-and-on.

Nice cat and funny story-that why I keep my phone on vibrate when in the woods-easier to say I didn't feel it.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Bill Turner

Great story. That is one trophy I would love to have. Congratulations on a job well done. God bless you and our country.  :notworthy:

Thanks all for the nice comments.  
Yes tuning out the wife came kinda natural, shooting with three fingers came kinda natural but the holding the phone while shooting was a bit awkward... why the heck I answered the phone is still beyond me.

Kennym, I didn't weigh him but felt like about 25-30lbs  

Longbowben, yes Grand Forks is where I'm stationed, I'm an avionics tech on KC-135's.  Well I was, now I'm quality assurance.  One of those guys.  And it is definitely the coldest place I've ever been.

I'm getting a full body mount but still not sure on the pose.. anyone have any good suggestions?  I'm thinking of him kinda lying on a tree branch with his legs hanging down.  That way I can mount it on the wall and not take up too much room.

A bad day of hunting is still far better than a good day at work.

Well, did you pick up the bread and milk on the way home?

Well done! And thank you for your service to our country.
