  1. are they legal to shoot ???

    Yes cougars (mountain lions) are legal to shoot in Texas as long as you have a valid hunting license.  As far as "black panthers" are concerned I have mixed thoughts on them being in this area.  However, if you go to the Ellen Trout Zoo in Lufkin you will see that the Jaguar's range is up in this area.  They have a map that shows a shaded area that includes S.E. Texas.  The Jaguar can be spotted or black.  It just might be possible for some to be in this area.
  2. About 10 yrs ago I watched a cougar stalk a couple of small bucks that were grazing in my oat patch in Newton.  At first I thought it was a really large bobcat until I saw its long tail and then I knew what it was.  The wind was swirling and they winded him before he could catch one.  Pretty neat to watch it unfold though, watched him try to sneak up on them for about 5 min before they busted him.  About 2 weeks later my brother-in-law saw him cross one of his lanes close to his feeder.  We both could have killed him but decided that since they are so rare in this part of Texas we would just watch.

  3. CC should be a good test for EC.  Newton only beat them by 4 but we also had about 6 turnovers during that game.  CC is fast, big and well coached.  They like to run the ball with their speedy backs but can and will throw deep.  Should be a good game

  4. Hey Duckbutter,  good luck tonight.  I am rooting for Newton.  I want to see them get Marlin.  Where is Backwoods?  I haven't posted in a long time but I have been reading.  Good luck

    Thanks Woodvillefan....I haven't heard from Backwoods in a long time, don't know if he is just lurking or what.  Looks like we will be facing McGregor next Friday, really like our chances this year.
