Bob in TXMemorial Day Bobcats
I got out of San Antonio this weekend and headed up to a friend's 5,000 acre ranch near Robert Lee. My calling partner, Jay Travis and I went calling for bobcats Monday. We called in three and took two, all between 1:00 and 3:30 PM. According to the "experts" you can't call cats during the day. Jay got a great 27lb. tom and I got a very nice 17lb. female. The third one never gave us a clear shot. The interesting thing is that the two we took were totally different color phases. Jay's was an "orange" and mine was a "brown". They were taken on different ranches, but only about 15 miles apart. We have called in eight bobcats in the past several weeks around the Robert Lee/Water Valley area. Life is good.
Good Hunting,
Bob

I usually get to shoot 5 or 6 during the Deer season here in N. C. while sitting in my "box stand". I have hunted in Texas twice,(for coyotes) both times with Gary Roberson of Burnham Bros. calls. Had a great time and got my very first double.. Tell me, what kind of rifle did you use? What caliber, and what bullet??
