Bakes,
I have seen my dad, a trapper of some fame, kill Mt. Lions in a steel trap with a hammer and never get injured. The Lion is a very timid animal by nature..I have killed many of them with dogs and in traps with a .22 L.R. pistol..The most dangerous thing about a Lion is he will make you hurt yourself when he hisses at you, you will run into a rock or tree, I have done that....Now the un hunted Lions in California are a different and deserved creature as they stopped all hunting and the new generation considers thier children as only part of the food chain, so I have no knowledge of the animal, he is a different sort....

Gryphon,
Mostly I have shot only 3 and 4 year old or older bulls that never grew very good horns as that is all they would ever be and they probably needed culling...

I have let many good bulls pass as I would prefer a client got them, but not always, I sure shot the bull of my dreams last year, mostly because it was ment to be and came around just right..

There are many bulls in our area so it probably makes little difference one way or the other, but I just like to hunt them and really don't care how big they are, its the chase, the failures that I remember more than the successes, at least for the most part...I do have some extra special memories....

We normally have excess bulls at the end of the year and I shoot them, that comes about in various ways..I have shot as many as 10 to 15 bulls in a single season in several countries in the past and normally at least 4 or 5 today...sometimes I arrange an extra license..
