I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Here's a Southwest Texas lion from about a month or so ago caught in the canyon country along the Pecos River. Weighed in at 152# and sure looks bigger than that 150 pounder.

Sit on your horse on top of a ridge, look out across the country and tell me there is no God.

I shot one in Washington that weighed 149# and it definitely looked bigger. It was weighed at Green Valley Meats in Auburn WA.

The thing that can be very deceiving when weighing cougars though is their stomach contents. I've seen what should be 90# cougars with nearly 20 pounds of venison in their stomachs.
