Also, one local sporting goods store seems to be quite knowledgeable about lion hunting. I have the impression that some success involves the use of calling. I also got the impression that an employee there has tagged a lion every year, but i may be wrong.
Also, i thought the quota was increased this season by 10, to 50 total. Seems to me, you are facing quite a challenge. However, there evidently quite a lot of lion in the hills, if hunters can meet the quota every year. Also it seems lion tagged here, are found quite a few places East.
Perhaps you have seen lion track on your place?
Thanks for the offer ron. if you have the name of the person and store i wouldn't mind talking to someone who has been hunting lions before. I plan on taking a predator call, a fawn distress and a rabbit but calling i think is still not the solution unless there is a cat around and he feels like responding at the time. I've seen some predators simply ignore calls, but i figure it is worth a try.
Successful or not, it will be fun i guess.
Thanks sabotloader for the link. I will read it. I'm open to all the info i can find between now and january
