Frank Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) Well had some sucsess tonight, i was on my own and had a great night listening to fox mating music Was in a different arae, another lamb call, but these foxes were helping themselfs to a few laying hens aswell. First fox came to my fox bark and sat at 125yds, bang flop. Second fox, took 20 odd mins to bring in to 102yds for a safe shot, another bang flop. :blink: Third fox, was playing hide and seek behind a bank,( now you see me now you dont) when i saw him, a bang flop accured. :blink: Had a quick clance at the golf course on the way back and poted a lovely hare. Out 2 hours, 4 results. Have another lamb call to deal with, prehaps tommorow night. All on lamp and all with CZ 527 .223 using Federal 40 grain Nosler ballistic tips.

Hate to see hares shot,It means one less one for me to catch with my nets but i suppose it has to be done Im feeding them very stinky fish. On the subject of shooting hares, these fellas are cousing mayhem at a golf course, i usually only shoot about one or 2 a year, but these hares are becoming a pest and i got a special permit out in order to shoot them at night from the wildlife department. :blink: Whats this about you netting them then? Why do you net them? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you net them? Cheers. I have seen the damage hares can do.Used to work planting forestry and they would destroy the young saplings we were planting by stripping the bark. I net the hares if they become a problem or a nuisance like the lads in your golf course and relocate them to a more hare friendly envoirment and i also net them which i am licenced to do for the coursing clubs to run there meetings. Do you eat the hares frank? Love a bit of hare stew myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
