  1. Just wondering if there's any old anes on here who used to tan and sell fox pelts ect. After reading this weeks countrymans weekly, there was a article from The Warrener and his midget pal Ron and a photo of them outside there tanning shed years ago, it was a cracking pic and a good bit reading. So got me thinking how long did it take to tan a pelt, what was the best method of tanning, and how much did you get for pelts ect would love to hear some story's. If you have any old photos ect please post. Thanks Billy

This will be my first time aswel so if you can give some advice great. Bill

Well was walking through 1 of my woods this morning to check on the pheasant pen, when a saw 3 crows sitting on a dead elm, 1shot 2 then 3 all crows dropped , was a parent and 2 young. After the shots a heard something running through the ferns, out popped a fox in an opening , first shot missed second shot nailed it, but needed a third to finish the job, so 6 shots fired. Couldn't have done that with my over n under.
