After seventeen days (this year) of looking for tracks it all finally came together yersterday.  It only took a little over two hours to cover three miles and tree the cat.  I will post more details (embellished of course) and pictures this evening. For reference, I am five feet nine inches tall and weighed in after the hunt at 187.  Not as big as that brute Mickey got, but I believe he is a keeper.

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Congratulations, that cat looks pretty big to a NY boy. Your hard work paid off just like it is supposed to.

Way to go Walt!!! That is a good lookin kitty!!!
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

For hunting to have a future, we must invest ourselves in future hunters.
