       Had 3 dry runs this morning. >:(  13deg, wind blowing. This
       evening it had warmed up to about40 and no wind!
       I went out where I had seen the black cat but this is the only
       thing to show. I called anoter 20 minutes hopeing the black one
       would show.
       Typical central OK cat, small and red bellied.

       Nice looking cat....congrats.  Hang in there on the Black
       Cat.....that will be a trophy indeed.  Thanks for sharing the
       pic.  How far was the shot?  What caliber? How much did it
       weigh? Male or Female?  Sorry for all the questions. ;D

       Good looking cat, are the hides worth much? They're pretty rare
       here in N.E. Ohio, haven't seen one in years.

       I hear that hides are up to $200 for prime but I bet they are
       closer to $50. We have quite a few here.
       
       This cat came across 200yds of open pecan grove trotting past
       cows the whole way. I had set up on the edge of the grove next
       to a creek, expecting a cat to come out of the creek. This one
       looked like it came from where I parked the truck! She finally
       cleared the cows and turned down a fence line straight to the
       call. She paused at about 60yds I het her in the chest with a
       55gr softpoint and she dropped in her tracks. left a 6mm hole in
       the pelt, couldnt ask for any better. I use an AR chambered in
       6mmTAC (223 necked up to 6mm with a 30deg shoulder) I got her
       tubed out to sell. Its the first time I have done it but, it
       came out pretty good. I forgot to wiegh her but I guess around
       14 to 15 lbs.

       Nice job... $200 for prime....not bad at all.  I'm like
       you...probably $60 will be max.  Great looking cat anyway.  Mine
       is going on the wall.
