You could also point out that for him to be 'deeply disappointed in the weight of the cat' simply displays his lack of knowledge of Leopards and Leopard hunting because a cat's weight can vary enormously dependent upon a number of factors such as when it last bred, general health, age and a number of other factors....... which is why all the record books gauge cat trophies on skull measurement alone.

The only people who make a big thing about weight are those that don't know much about the subject.

With all due respect to the client. If the trophy was an inch over the minimum, I don't see what he's complaining about.
