Bullcat 12 Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 If you guys are serious on shooting foxes, you need to get yourselves a "Tenterfield Fox Whistle"... These things are short of being a miracle. Got mine yesterday, tried it out and shot four foxes in under 30 minutes. The foxes just come running up to you like a pet dog!!! You might see this post on a few hunting sites already. There`s nothing in it for me, I`m just amazed on how good it is, and will promote anything that keeps the fox population down... Here`s the link to the Tenterfield Whistle website check it out... http://www.tenterfieldfoxwhistle.net/ Quote Link to post
Guest chilli Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Wernt overly impressed with the fuckers tbh , May just be me they are a f****r to master thats for sure . You can buy them from the uo from a company called foxshot. Quote Link to post
salclalin 240 Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 That's the type used by Andre Georgescu,I bought one from Foxshot a couple of years ago.They take a bit of practice to use but are a good call Quote Link to post
Guest baldie Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 The aussie whistle,s dont work that well over here, mainly because the english foxes have heard a squeel of some sort before, the aussie foxes havent, due to their vast numbers, and vast areas of land. Quote Link to post
Bullcat 12 Posted June 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 They`re not too bad to master, as long as you dont blow them like a referees whistle. You need to keep your cheeks in and blow from your lungs (if that makes sense). You also need to keep your tongue off the holes. I too bought one from foxshot, but these are totally different. I too couldnt get the hang of the one I bought from foxshot. They`re $40 Aussie Dollars, thats about Eighteen Pounds. Expensive for a fox whistle, but you do get three of them and a CD that teaches you how to use them properly and to your advantage. Quote Link to post

brock 11 Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 ive found they are good on a windy night when the fox is a fair bit away from you ,but on a still night they are far to loud and spook the foxes Quote Link to post
MickC 1,825 Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 I tried to master mine for a while then gave up on it Quote Link to post

Guest Dillon Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 We had really good success with a whistle a few years back, I brought a fox in from a good mile away with one on a moor in Lancs, not so good on close stuff but definately worked on green foxes. Quote Link to post
Guest Frank Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 I have found, the palm of my hand works well lately. I have given up on the fox whistle. Frank. Quote Link to post
bullmastiff 615 Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 On the tenterfield website they have 11 differant distress calls you can download and listen to, would it be breaking copyright laws if I just copyed them to an mp3 player to play out of the landy's radio, then you can have em performed perfectly everytime and have them as loud or as quiet as you need depending on distance!!!
