Doug Arrows a Turkey Last Week!!

Here's Doug's Bird that he forked last week. My dad thumped one with a, "heavier than lead," shotgun load. I'll try to get it on the blog too. I made the video quality low so that I could upload it, but I think I didn't need to do it as much as I did!This bird only went about ten yards after getting thumped.

Trapping with Dayler

Dayler came trappin' with me this year quite often. He was always decked out in his camo coat etc. The only problem was those dang PINK boots that his cousin Kaylee gave him. He loves those things. I tried to explain to him that they were "girls" boots, but that didn't phase him. We had a lot of fun!

That's no Bobcat!

This was crazy! I got a call at 11:30 pm from a local trapper reporting that he had caught a large tom cougar. He explained to me that he had re-enforced his traps in various ways, and he doubted that the cougar would be able to pull out. (for those of you that don't know, you're not supposed to trap cougars, that's why he called-it was an accident). I called my neighboring officer Josh Carver, and Sergeant Brian Shearer. When we arrived I handed my camera to the trapper's son, and asked if he'd take pictures. We were able to let the cat go, but it wasn't easy! We used 3 catch poles, and a coat. It was exciting, and I found a new respect for mountain lions....They're dang strong!!
