Black panther sightings/discussion

[saute86]

I saw my first one on my deer lease back in the late 90's. I had him in the scope at around a 100 yards. It was quartering towards me. It turned broad side and I saw its tail. After the hunt I was telling everyone about it by the fire. I was getting hazed really bad over it. Then one of the old timmers on the lease said its about time someone else saw it. He laughed and said he hadnt said anything because he knew no one would beleave him. Last year my son and I were hunting 300 yards from my first sighting on a pipeline where a creek crosses. I saw what I thought was a pig come out. I grabbed my binocolars and told my son to get ready. When I saw it I told my son not to shoot its a cat. When it came out of the grass we could see that its tail was as long and curved. Guys yall dont have to beleave me and can bash me all you want but I know what I saw on both occassions. Both walked like a cat, looked too big to be a bobcat and were black in color.
