Last Nights Foxing

[murphymax 9]

Well lads was out for about 4 hours last night and not much in the way of Foxes, the one we got, has been shot at 3 times if my memory sreves me well.its always to far away for a good shot always in excess of 400yarsd, well last night same thing spotted it again in its usual patchabout 800 yards away in a boggy part of a moor on one of the farms i shoot, tried calling but NO CHANCE,so i decided to try and head it off , and moved the truck to where i thought it might be heading, 5 mins later we are in position a couple of little squeeks and it popped its head up 30 yards away , it was trying to make a quick exit, but it had a small burn to cross and a fence (square mesh type) before it was out into the open fields, my younger brother took aim and wham one dead sneaky FECKER, was a good shot even though it was only 40 yards away as he had to shoot through the fence,had a crack at an easy one about yards out but as soon as i pulled the trigger IT MOVED....BAST@RD MISSED.

there is a story to how i missed as the person who shot the one in the picture SQUEEKED when i was just about to pull the trigger, enough to make leave sharpish as it was a cub from the previous night where we shot its mum and da, hence why the squeek was enough to spook it.

 

cheers guys Jimmy.

It was big Dave, its the one i shot at and missed when we were out last week,up at Toms had a shot twice at it with Jim, but it had to be my brother who shot it dead @ 40 yards though, at least i can say i had an idea of where to move to, so we could head it off, suppose i was familiar with its habits after 3 failed attempts to nail it.

 

Free Sunday Night if your up for a wander.
