I want to see that same technique with a 35lb tom. I am thinking we could all learn something from a video with that content. LOL! Bobcats are always fun to release. Cable choke sticks work alright, but there is a fine line between a released cat and a dead cat! I refer to releasing cats as playing with a tornado that has claws. A mature cat can shred a pair of Wrangler jeans in short order, best if you are not wearing them at the time.Good luck! I ran a small line earlier this week. Bunch of coons and a few yotes. I want to learn tanning, I would like to keep a few of the prettier ones on the basement wall.
The kids filmed my patented cat release technique...

No, just saying if you are going to let them rip into your pants, it WOULD be a lot more comfortable in THAT situation if your pants were actually not on! I have had them latch onto pants that were still actually on me....Not sure I've even seen a 35lb cat. Balls factor may change a bit in that situation! Had a cat that I caught by hand get a hold of me once. Very much like a tornado with claws. I bleed a lot! Turkey, are you saying you take your pants off to release a cat? You are the man!
In my case it was because season wasnt open. In Nebraska season used to open December 1st and close in February.
Just don't feel the need to kill them. Last I checked (which hasn't been in quite a while to be honest) cat pelts from around here weren't worth much, and even though I think we have a healthy population of them I don't see them being as hard on ground nesting birds as coons are. I don't know other than I just don't feel like killing them. Haven't even shot one with a bow for a long time as I like to watch them work an area.

Just don't have a desire to kill them. Quit shooting them while bowhunting long ago and don't target them while trapping, but do catch a couple a yr it seems. Just watch them do their thing and enjoy the show.You are a braver man than me! Just curious...why the release?
