Re: Mountain Lion sighting
I wouldn't describe that tail as "thick".
There are two kinds of guns. Those I have acquired, and those I hope to.

Re: Mountain Lion sighting
Interesting story.
Shot by Samuel Brush of Susquehanna County in 1856, the Lion was initially stuffed with tow and mounted on a wood and metal frame. After serving as a plaything for the family's grandchildren, it was selected for showing at the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago along with other Pennsylvania treasures including the Liberty Bell. Obtained by Penn State shortly thereafter, it was placed on display in Old Main. While there, it may have inspired Nittany Lion creator Joe Mason to put forward the lion as the school mascot.
Remaining at Penn State until the 1950s, the Lion was then loaned to the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh for use in an exhibit about endangered species. Placed in storage, the Lion was largely forgotten about until it was rediscovered in 1992 and returned to Penn State. After undergoing an extensive four-year restoration, the Lion was placed on display at Pattee Library. A University treasure, the Lion has found a new home at the Penn State All-Sports Museum and will be the centerpiece of interpretation and programming centering on the Nittany Lion."A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself"
"He created the game, played the game, and lost the game.... All under his own terms, by his own doing." JW34

Re: Mountain Lion sighting
Dog sat on railroad track. He started dozing, and didn't hear the train coming. At the last instant, he realized the train was about to cut off his tail. Instinctively, he spun around to save his tail and wound up with his head chopped off. Moral of this story...never lose your head over a piece of tail.

Re: Mountain Lion sighting
So. I'm heading north to my friends camp for the upcoming rifle deer season.
Since I got 2 deer, I will be the shanty bitch.
I'll cook, make jerky, fix the pull cord on the generator and fish.
My question, since you guys have now scared me with these couple posts about mountain loons is this.
Do you all think 9mm hardcast is enough to stop a loon if I'm fishing and get attacked by one, OR should I have .44 mag semiwadcutters? I dont have any .45 hard cast so figure possibly the .44 could save me.
I believe I'll carry it over my chest waders for a lightening quick presentation if needed.
Opinions?
I'm going to wear a trail cam on my chest, kinda like a body cam to record the kill.
And yes, I have my furtakers license.Opinions are like anal apertures. They all stink but mine.
