Arizona bonus animal

I took my daughters deer hunting here on a late season junior hunt and ended up filling my OTC lion tag. On Saturday I spotted a lion and before I could go after it, it moved and I couldn't locate it again. On Sunday I was on a different ridge and walked up to a lion and missed a 75 yard off hand shot. I called in some houndsmen and a short time later the dogs had him bayed up in a rock ledge. No way for a bow or rifle shot. I had to use a snub nose 38, left handed, hanging out over a rock ledge to make the 5 foot shot! 100# tom. One of the best tasting wild game meats out there... We have three days this weekend to fill the deer tags. Ed F

AWESOME JOB>>> Wish this liberal left state would thin some of them out to allow wild game come back....

I hunted California for over 30 years and maybe saw 6 lions in that time. I've lived in Arizona for 3 years and have seen 6 in daylight glassing for deer. I don't know what that means... I get a lot of lion pics on my trail cameras. Ed F

Wow cool, never thought about eating a cat. I have read that they taste like veal. I'm a cat owner so I'll probably never do that but good on you. Congrat's !

Lots of deer, lots of lions. Congratulations Ed! That is awesome. If you can spare even one bite when I drop off those deer next week I’d love to try it. No pressure haha.
