Well Bert…Thanks for the complement, but as far as the cougar goes, I don’t think I’ll be getting one anytime soon. They are protected here in Calif. and I don’t see an out of state cat hunt in the picture this year. However, I just got back from setting up my tree stand in a berry patch I found last year. It’s the same one I shot the bear in last year. With any luck, I’ll be adding another bear to the mix. Season starts the third week of Aug. 8)
