Deer Hunting in Louisiana

got one

I made an evening hunt in EBR yesterday. While watching 3 coons demolish my corn this dude came outta no where running full speed in and tried to catch one of the coons. Needless to say, he gave me a 10 yard shot and that was the end of him. He ran about 25 yards and crashed out, if i wouldn't have got down early, i coulda shot a deer, but what can ya do, he's headed to the taxidermist today. Definately the biggest bobcat i've ever seen.

Cost

That will be a great looking mount. I have my name on one that showed up on my camera last month. I hope to get him too. Have you talked to a taxidermist and do you know what a body mount would cost? Just wondering if I can afford it...

Mount

If you got one mounted for $200, you got a good price. I shot one a few years ago and called several Taxidermists and from what I remember most of the prices were around $350.

I ended up giving it to someone on this site that did taxidermy but was wanting to practice a little more on Bobcats.

$$$$

I know a guy who has a small part-time business and isn't trying to rip anyone off.

yeah

i'm not sure how much it's going to be, i'm actually swithing taxidermists b/c my old one was getting a little too pricey and i've seen better work. i had a friend that got 2 bobcats mounted last year fighting each other, we're going to go pick his mount up tomarrow and drop mine off. i've been after a bobcat for years, and i finally got one, and with a bow makes it that much better.

I want one too

In the last two years I have seen at least 10 bobcats (maybe the same ones just on different days) but I have always held off not wanting to spook the deer. This year they are going to fall to the silent dead from the stick and string!!!!!!

Mount

Let me know how that mount comes out. I shot two last year one afternoon with a .22. There was hardly any damage and thought it was cool to get two in a hunt so I wanted to get them both mounted. Anyone got any suggestions on what positons I should mount them in, cant decide.

bobcats

hey bowman with a cat you can't go wrong. any position will look good if it's done right. a guy i mounted some rams for was telling me about a guy he knew who went sit in a deer stand with a .22 just in case he saw a bobcat...that wouldn't be you would it?
