Last cut

[lllluke1 329]

Mowed for silage for the last cut yesterday and the farmer asked me to have a wander to see if I could drop any foxes that were about.

Had them both at about 100 yards

Still waiting on the silage to be cut , might not be the last one though , have to see what the weather does. Can’t beat silage , foxes can’t resist putting in an appearance. Well done , they look in nice condition.

Went out for a quick shine earlier.  Called in this vixen and had to shout at her to get her to stop.  Dropped her at no more than 40 yards.

Saw another 2, but 1 of them I couldn't get a safe shot, the other one took off as soon as the lamp hit it.

Don't know what it is called.  The stainless flying saucer shape one, with a hole straight through it.  Picked it up in my local RFD in a bag with no name on it

I think they are called the Acme 504 , I used to use a brass one , I think it was called a WAM . The only calls I use now are my Icotec and my hand/mouth  . The way I drive around spotting it’s very often just to stop them and turn them . The Icotec is good to set up and sit back and wait .

As others have said, the 2  look in good condition, also young, particularly the first!

I’ve got the gc 350 model , you can download different calls onto an SD card , one call I would recommend is the pheasant distress . The beauty of these type of callers is you can set them well away from your shooting position and if you think about wind / breeze you will be undetected by foxes . You  can activate and control volume or change the call remotely. I’ve also got the “quiver critter “ type attachment. I’ve used this and had success with it , but I wonder weather they would have appeared anyway without it . I think these are a fantastic bit of kit for lying in wait for foxes , icotec are not the only make there are others out there , but I think they are reasonably priced.
