    KILL THEM. ALL OF THEM.

    Source(s): And yes, I'm talking about the old women that are called cougars.

    Regardless of which kind of cougar you are hunting the best tips I can offer are:

    Shoot straight.

    Stay safe.

    Good luck!

    Shoot it with nothing less than a 12 ga. slug or a .30-06. I hate big cats, they are uncannily fast and stalk. Tough to kill too, they take a long time to die from chest shots... did I mention they are strong... and have claws? Stay safe, and remember, if you don't kill it immediately, shoot it until it does finally. I hate cats. They stalk you, and can jump pretty damn far.

    Make sure you have a good gun that does not jam and a pistol for backup like a 44mag revolver.

    Watch out for the trees and ledges above.

    They have a good sense of smell and hearing.

    Are you using dogs?

    Always look up. They like to come down on you from trees and high ground.

    I've heard bowling alleys and the internet are good spots to start.
