Quick look out

[FOXHUNTER 5,021]

Phone rang last nite " Are you coming out Ive just seen a fox whilst out for a walk with wor lass "

 

Never one to refuse an offer , my mate picked me up and we arrived on the shoot at about 8.30 pm.

 

We lay in wait in a set a side field below the gorse where the fox was spotted.

 

I called a few times but nothing showed except a few hares ambling about and a roe doe which unfortunately was not accompanied by a buck

 

As it was getting dark we entered the gorse field , my mate got set up on the sticks and I squeaked by hand for about 30 seconds ,suddenly I just saw a flash of orange through the grass , this dog cub hurtled in to 20 yards

 

Job sorted ..................

A good size cub did he feel comfortable with the 20 yard shot

Nice shooting mate

 

Are the sticks better than a bipod? I coulndt be arsed with having to lie for each shot. Rather sit or stand.

you should've saved the bullet and just hit him with the butt at that distance.................... nice one.........

Not happy with 20 yrds much prefers 400 yds

 

But you got to take them as they appear

Bipod is best as you are a lot steadier but sticks are very valuable where theres a lot of cover .

I will bear it in mind.
