I'm no expert , but after feeding dozens of em for a few yrs I can tell you this...they LOVE swamps , creek beds , river shores with choked willow and hardwoods..or very young growth in logged off areas...set up where they have to reveal themselves to go down wind of you , squeel a distressed rabbit call....you will soon tire of shooting bobcats!:wink:

Shoot them with a 300 win mag. They are dangerous game.

I got one come out to a medley of 'tunes' last Wednesday. He didn't come right out but held in the scrub-line. Woulda been an easy shot. :rolleyes:

I was flippin' through the Cotton tail distress, meadowlark, and Rodent distress calls on a Prey Master digi caller. I'll be definitely trying this again.

Just so you know, I have very limited experience doing this. This cat came around on my 5th attempt of trying to muster something up, since I got into the game. Call this post what you will, bit don't take it as sound advice. :wink:
