Or perhaps a little better shot!
The whole bunch of them.

Don't know the circumstances behind this hunt, maybe the lion was terrorizing a village or something, but if it was just to kill a lion, I wish he would have taken a couple of them out before they got him.

My EXACT thought. Four f'ing sissies all shooting at the lion. WOW, what great hunters.
Like you said, too bad the lion didn't take a few down first:mad:

I'm with you SpectreBoy
 
Got to hand it to the cameraman for not flinching, though.

GLENNS 12-30-2003 02:23 PM

SpectreBoy, would have to agree with you. Looks like the one in the group with biggest **lls was the lion.

packinair 12-30-2003 02:54 PM

says it is a hunting expedition... that just flat out pisses me off:mad:

Sweet!

I love to hunt and hunt A LOT but that does not look like hunting to me. It looks like one of those damn safari expeditions where 4 p*ssies get together and shoot a damn animal that is caged in and half tame from being fed by humans at distances.

I hope this is not the case but it looks like it too me. If so...I wish the damn lion had gotten them:mad:

Amazing video, but very sad to see those @#%$# hunt an animal like that. They should be the ones on the other end of the guns. :(

Partycove 12-30-2003 03:33 PM

I agree. I would like to take on of those punks and through him in with 4 lions and see his chances.

tripps 12-30-2003 08:10 PM

Too bad the lion didn't have a gun!!! Maybe it would be a little even tripps

BLee 12-30-2003 08:14 PM

I wish that Lion would have killed those p_ssies. I would love to see them suffer.

cuda 12-30-2003 09:09 PM

I like to hunt, but I only hunt what I will eat. I can't see killing a great cat just to pump your ego.

I would have been more scared of all the panicked guys trying to shoot the cat when he charged. Look, you can see one with the rifle pointed right at the guy that shot.

jmeng 12-30-2003 09:33 PM

When hunting dangerous game it is standard for the guides to carry backup rifles. If you noticed the hunter took the first shot and no one else shot until the lion charged. At that point all bets are off and you do what you have to keep someone from being killed. Really don't see what the problem is. Are y'all saying a profesional guide doesn't have the right to protect himself or his client? Granted the hunter should have made a better first shot but sometimes **** happens.

Pure Energy 12-30-2003 09:52 PM

Cowards!

locogringo 12-31-2003 12:35 AM

I don't post much here but looks like personal whore gratification here to me. Nothing like a majestic lion being ruled in his kingdom by silver edacity.

But that is just my opinion.

My philosophy... hunt to kill, kill to eat.

Chris,
Its nice to see your name. I hope after all the work Im doing this winter we can can get to hang and run this season. I had a great time in NJ that time.

Lucky 12-31-2003 12:15 PM

A REAL hunter would not be using such a hi powered rifle and scope for such a magnificent animal.

At least use a bow and arrow if you have the balls.

I think the point that most were trying to make, myself included, is what is the point of hunting the lion in the first place? Personally, I don't hunt, but I have no problems with people hunting animals they will eat.
Hunting a lion so you can hang a head on your wall is an a#$hole move if you ask me.
