Mountain lion hunting is a game of covering country until you find a track, then you try to keep up with the hounds. If you’ve never hunted behind hounds, you should try it at least once in your hunting career. The hunting guides and outfitters that we represent will all work hard for you on your hunt and run well trained hounds.
Mountain lion hunting stands as one of the most exhilarating challenges for big game hunters. These elusive, yet very common predators, also known as cougars or pumas, inhabit some of the most rugged terrain across North America. For those seeking an adrenaline-pumping adventure, mountain lion hunting offers an unforgettable experience amidst breathtaking landscapes. Mountain lion hunting requires a unique approach compared to other big game pursuits. The most common methods include:
Good cougar hunting can be found across the western United States, Canada, and parts of Central and South America. States like Colorado, Montana, Idaho, and Arizona are renowned for their robust populations and well-regulated hunting seasons. Guided hunts often take place in remote, mountainous regions, offering the added reward of spectacular scenery.
Mountain lion hunting is physically demanding, often involving steep climbs, rugged trails, and long hours of tracking. Hunters should be prepared for variable weather conditions, from freezing snow to harsh sun. Success depends on the hunter’s physical fitness, patience, and the skill of the guide or hounds involved.
The hunt you book needs to be in an area and/or with an outfitter that would satisfy your trophy quality expectations, while also fitting your physical condition level and your budget. That's what our service is all about.
