why did you do that? ....

[MercierBradleyMichae]

Hunting sure doesn't look like much of a challenge for humans.

@MercierBradleyMichae - the shooting is easy but the hunting was very hard. Thanks.

thats a great video but where in southern alberta is there trees :)

[labowhunter1]

@AxiALe Yeah. no doubt. I live in Lethbridge but got the cat near castle falls. Couple trees left put there.

why kill them

[labowhunter1]

There are a few reasons. There are an abundance of them where I live and they are a nuisance to the farmers; especially those with sheep and llamas, they are good to eat and lastly, I've caught them hunting me. Anyway, hope you liked the video and try the meat if you get a chance. They are very tasty with a very white meat, similar to pork.

@labowhunter1 thanx for the info i didnt know you could eat them

[Antithropocentric]

@labowhunter1, yeah, there will always be excuses to kill any species imaginable. Just don't bother thinking about Man's overall impact on nature, since it doesn't match those cover stories.

[labowhunter1]

@Antithropocentric Not sure why you would say that. The largest issue facing species worldwide is "loss of habitat". Development by humans is the major influence. The average person wanting to live in their own home with 3 acres and go to the mall, have more of an impact on nature than properly regulated hunting practices. If anything, hunters have made sure that large reserves of land have been put aside so it can't be developed. If you just don't like hunting then don't watch the videos.

Thats pretty wild.

Great shot, and nice big Cat by the looks of it.

[blackfeatherarchery]

Excellent shot and clean kill bowhunting is the best.

[labowhunter1]

Thanx. Bowhunting is the best. Brings hunting to a whole new level.

[blackfeatherarchery]

You are welcome archery is so awesome.

[shylton9]

AWESOME,lucky,lucky guy,how much was the hunt please?Thats my wet-dream :-)

[labowhunter1]

Hi Shylton9,

The hunt cost me $250 per day for the guy to cover the cost of his dogs. I live in an area with lots of cats so they are a general season around here. It was the greatest experience.  I will be doing it again.
