Ballasted_Bowyer:
It seems like a remote call would be a good idea or at least a team operation where the cat couldn't face both shooters at the same time. You'd have to be very conscientious about not shooting at your buddy.

JW_Halverson:
A couple big cats have been taken in the Black Hills by young, aggressive, lunatics with bows just by cutting fresh track after a snowfall and trailing that cat for all you are worth.  The idea is to push the cat until he/she gets sick of you and trees.  Once treed, you can look the cat over at your leisure to determine if you feel it is a good trophy. 

That doesn't seem to work anymore.  GF&P has a lot of cats collared and they are used to being treed, tranqualized, and traumatized! Used to be they would tree within a mile or two, but nowadays they light a shuck for the next county!

if you can get drawn within 20 yards, you can get a shot,,, probably not every time,, just like any hunting, but if that is your goal,, you can do it,,,
