Lion hunt

bsterns,
On another forum there were several posts that said that this was a "canned hunt" shot in Texas. Also that there is a fence in the background, etc., etc. It looked pretty real to me! Years ago I seen a video of a lion charge and the hunter was using a bolt action rifle, it amazed me how cool some of you DG hunters can be. I watched Doug McNeal and a PH shooting a charging elephant on OLN and it made me set on the edge of my chair! I've never been "tested (combat,etc.)" and a charging Big Five would test my nerve! Sounds machismo, but just my opinion. You all have my salute!
