Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Hi guy's and gal's am Rich Baker of Troutdale Oregon . I have been bowhunting for over 20 years and I am new to this forum stuff I just would like to share a picture of this couger I shot , on a spot and stalk hunt. It was shot with my Mathews bow on 8-28-04 green score is over 16" and the world record is 16 1/6 so I am bitting my nails until it is official. this cat was not shot from a pack of hound or anything like that I just saw him and moved into position and shot. thankfully the arrow hit the mark. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...R1-032-14A.jpg Cheers Rich

Congratulations!! It must have been quite a hunt!

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Rich congrats on the cat.

p.s. this is Junfan from Westfly. I think we meet at Camp Sherman this year. I was in the Bellinger booth.

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

You must have a substantial bag of rocks to do that! Everyone in the northeast is scared to go to their stands in the dark because we heard there may be a cougar or two around. How do you find those big cats, as far as hospitality? Are they a friendly bunch? I would be more scared of YOU than the cat. JEESH, you snuck up on that thing? Good goin'!

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Wow! Nice cat! Congrats!

What's holding up the cat's head in the pic? Is it frozen or rigor mortis or what?

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Awesome, congratulations and welcome to the site.

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Looks still alive, thats what i was going to ask

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

I think that's Siegfried. He trained that cat to do that and then he shot him. :D Just kidding. Great cat and good job hunting. I could never shoot one by using a pack of dogs. Welcome to the board!

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Man, now that's an impressive feline! I'm certain it was an exciting hunt as well. What was the distance when you released the arrow... was the cat aware you were present? Good job!

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

What's a FNG?

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Great cat. I hate to call you lucky but you were very lucky to bring it down with a Mathews bow.:D

Welcome to the board. It can be as addictive as the hunt itself.

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Its the rigamortis, we had it on a pole for about 2 hours packing it out of the canyon

Nice cat! I bet every Chinese restaurant in Oregon was calling you after you shot that hog!

:D:D

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Welcome to the boards FNG. That is a real nice cat. Around here the only cats we get to shoot are much much smaller.;)

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Just the mention of those three letters said in harmony send shivers down my spine. Go to the politics forum and you'll find out what a "fng" is.:D

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

BOWFAN...When I first read the name of this thread, I thought he shot him...LOL

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

By the time I realized I was a FNG I was a FOG.

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

AWESOME CAT!!!!!!! All it needs is antlers,

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

That picture warms my heart. See post "got the shet scared out of me...":D

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!

For real, welcome to the boards.;)

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

Nice cat!!!!!;)

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

That's got to be a rush. Nothing like testing you skill on a deadly animal:eek:. I'm glad we're reading about your kill instead of the lions. I can definately see the appeal. Big bruins, Cougars, I get excited just thinking about it. Congrats on a beautiful cat.

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

That's one huge kitty! Great hunt!

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
 

There's a bunch of us FNG's here I see. Congrats on the cat!

RE: Big cat, and a FNG!!
