I've been trying my best to get one out of the cypress hills area but no luck so far. Been trying to call one in with a predator call. There are sure no deer around. Seen some elk but not much at all for anything else. I'll keep trying, sure would be cool to get one with a call.

I'd be surprised if they kill more then 5 in the whole province with the new boot season but having the season is a great idea...I knew a guy down in the states who killed a lion 3 years in a row without using dogs... Him and his buddies would sit in his backyard with a spotting scope and watch a huge cliff face, when they spotted a lion it was a steep steep hike and a long shot of about 700 yards but he made it happen 3 times and one of his friends got one doing the same thing... I wasnt ever thrilled about them doing it we chased the cats in the same area and all they ever shot was females but i have to admit it was pretty impressive..
