There is something about lion hunting and getting vehicles in questionable places. When I was running a lot I had a couple routes that my buddies would got out and walk in place calling me all kinds of names for going there. But you can't tree cats without finding cat tracks
I tryed killing one with a old pistol cause I thought it would be cool and all went to hell and I ended up pistol whipping the lion in the mellon cause if I shot it would hit my hound in it's mouth. It's kinda fun to change it up, going to try a bow this year maybe, also did the black powder thing on them too.
I wanted to share a couple pics with you guys that are interested in lion hunting. I have had a few days off and wanted to shoot a lion with a old rifle I inherited last fall after my grandmother died.It is a 1908 model 92 winchester 25-20. the gun was my great grandfathers and when I got it there were 2 boxes of shells with it that were about as old as the rifle itself. I had to take the ladder sight off the rifle because it was bent so I used a box of shells getting it to shoot and decided to try to get a lion with it this winter. we found this track about noon today, the dogs did a good job and got the lion treed in short order. I made a easy 30 foot shot and this is the result. the first pic is of the burb stuck ( it seemed like a good idea at the time ) second is of the lion, dogs model 92 and me.
