masmiffy Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Had my fastest ever 3 foxes Monday night using the Vitara roof system for the bipod! Drove into the first field saw eyes squeaked and suddenly 3 pairs! Got them running in shot the first at about 80yds, was a job to stop it running in! Second turned and made about 20 yds back to hedge then that went down. Third went left got to about 120 from truck and over that went, all 3/4 grown cubs. Shot all 3 in way less than 30 seconds!! Drove into another field, 2 away from where these were shot, and got the vixen. 4 in 10 mins!! Continued round this same field and about 10 mins later saw two more pairs of eyes! Squeaked one in to about 120 and no 5 in the bag! Best start to a night ever! Did another 2 more farms same night and got another 2, one on each. 7 foxes 7 shots was well happy!!

r1steele Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Nice when it all happens like that. I had a similar night a long time ago. Left my house at 11pm, first field saw lots of sets of eyes. Shot the vixen first then followed up with 4 big cubs (nearly full grown). back in the house at 11.20pm. If you had taken someone with you that didn't know much about foxing they would think it was so easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masmiffy Posted August 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 You could indeed as I only ever put one round in the Howa at a time so had to grab the next 2 from the 'bullet rack' in the Vitara!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masmiffy Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Week over and total was 14 in 3 nights for 15 shots (I missed one at around 200yds) These 7, 2 next night at another location and 5 last night over same ground we got the 7 on. Been a good week and thinned them out so the farmers should be pleased! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
