This worries me, I'm always looking for the obvious which is when I spot with someone they "always" spot the game first. But just as they start to tell me they see something, then I see it.
Last year I saw a cat like this at about 15 yards. I heard something rustling in the brush and about a 40# cat with a tail as long as he was slipped out and went down the firebreak away from me. All the members except the one who own the camera called BS on me. As a crow flies, the distance between my sighting and his camera is 250 yards. Now it will be interesting slipping in/out in the pre dawn when you hear something but you don't know what it is.
This is a couple yards from where he bowhunts in this bottom.
