I think it would be awesome to see one. What an awesome animal. A cougar hunt out west has always been something ive wanted to do. Dangerous however. I have a buddy who guides for them out west. If you decide to ever do it, do not use dogs. Makes for a crappy hunt. The dogs run the cat up the tree, you follow up and shoot it. Not fun or sporting in my book. And they are most definitly here in Michigan.

Not too far from your house OJ.

anything with dogs is a blast!!!!!!!! Im not sure on the cougar thing yet.... When we coyote hunt all winter we literally put on thousands and thousands and THOUSANDS of miles btwn the guys in the group and none of us have EVER spotted a couger, or a track, and they claim they've been "spotted" in our area, for the past 5 yrs mind ya....

cougars are smart critters thats why they can go through an area and only get spotted on a trailcam.... they know where people go and where they dont go ...

I understand that, but with all the "sightings" that have been in our area you think one of us would have at least saw a track in the snow or something.......
