    I think youre confused, it isnt SPORT, its called PEST control.

    You shoot your foxes when you want, and others will shoot foxes when they NEED to be shot , at lambing time, at mating time , milky , cubs , they are VERMIN.
    They do not require respect, or for us to wait till the cubs come up to killing age.

    When it comes down to posting pictures, its something I dont choose to do , but if others want to, and its within forum rules , who on earth are you to tell them they cant ?
    As for the personal insults, well ... that says a lot about you.

    On Shooting foxes ? , 'Like father like son' My shooting buddies pic, he couldnt believe the uproar that caused !

    The farm in question, told us early March to not attend due to CV19 concerns ect, 2 weeks later , and theres bits of lamb all over the place, he begged us to come up during early lockdown and sort it, which we have done very effectively.
    So much so , the local hunt has told us to stop shooting them , as there will be none left when the hunt season starts :lol:
     

    Thanks rewulf and others for the supportive replies 👍🏻

    Just take a step back and use whatever is between your ears !

    if you want to post pictures of dead foxes that’s up to each individual. But it’s how the picture is taken.

    theres a picture of a bloke and his son behind a grassed fox just before, no one can tell if it’s milky, they both have their faces uncovered.

    can you see the difference ? I’m not ant by a long way but there’s no way I’d risk everyone else’s shooting by posting silly pictures trying to prove to everybody who’s shot, dug or run fox’s that I’m an alpha male.

    his other picture was taken down as he posted a Rabbit his powerful HMR had destroyed. Bad shot in the real world .

    Sporting pictures means what ?

    A shot proud of his bag , pigeons , Crow’s whatever 

    a stalker at the side of a Deer or enjoying a beautiful mountainside 

    large fish caught 

    The great outdoors 

     

    or 

    a mangled rabbit carcass 

    a dead fox held up by Rambo and the Deliverance blokes love child 😴

     

     

     

    Like others have said it’s lawful pest control,,, like it or not!!!! If you don’t want to see pictures don’t look on this forum! If it said no fox pictures or bullet wounds I wouldn’t post would I!!! You don’t no me so don’t judge me ok,,!

    I generally don’t shoot hares,, but when ur on land that you have gained permission to shoot,, and the farmer asks you to ,, then in my opinion you do ask your asked within reason,, and as I checked the breading season is February,,, not now🤷🏻‍♂️,, but as I said I dnt shoot hares unless asked to control them,,you never no with land owners,, you say no and that’s it your off!!! There are 2 other older guys who shoot the land aswel,, shotgun only,, and as I was walking round,, we’re they had been a week previously they had left all there empty cartridges everywhere and coke cans,,needless to say me and my son picked up around 170 empty shells🤬🤬.

    Hi all,, went out today with my son to zero my new optics iv fitted on my 223,,after zeroing in we decided to stay for a while,,spoke to the farmer who told me he’d seen a fox 🦊 lately and 2 nights ago had taken 1 of his cat's!!! Decided to have a look about for signs ect,, over the next few hours we managed 2 huge hares at 156 yards and 138 yards,,,around 8:30pm we were sat patiently waiting in our chosen spot,,calling the fox every so often but didn’t show,, so I thought,, my son says there it is dad,, it was sat right at the boundary about 600 yards away🙄,, I kept calling and calling got him within around  170 yards Then he turned and trotted off before I could pull the trigger,,,we moved further down the field towards were she went,,,, got into a new position and started to call again within seconds she showed herself,,, click and that was it,, over she rolled square in the chest,,@ 246yards,, needless to say we were well chuffed👍🏻🦊

    Some time ago, if anyone posted a picture of a rifle with the bolt closed it would immediately get flagged up by the doo gooders, "shouldnt do this"   "shouldnt do that" etc

    And my experience of RCO's is well just amazing, yet they asked me where i get to shoot a 17rem, when i mentioned out in a field they where just gob smacked that you could actually shoot out of the safe confinement of a range. Then another time some chap with a load of badges on his shirt and other paraphernalia hanging round his neck shouted the order STOP! STOP! STOP! because there was a power-glider about 1/2 a mile away and about  2k high flying over head. He obviously had experience of his gang shooting aimlessly into the air like some far eastern wedding party.

    Hiya all,, with Boris’s new lockdown announcement last week,,are we aloud out to shoot now the rules have been slightly relaxed??? I’ll be on my own away from any public footpaths or roads,, on a large farm! Surely this is more safer than goin out meeting somebody from a different household,, that now is allowed?? Anybody have any answers? Thanks Phil.
