Dougy Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Well after seeing Dockholiday's Muntjack , and not long having a venison Burger yesterday lunch time, i decided to have a look yesterday evening to see if i could bag a Munjack as the burger count is getting a bit low. Well as i all ready said in Docks post, the nettles and brambles were a little OT to say the least after about 100 or so yards i turned back . So the fox's were the target species last night, and i had all ready taken 2 off there the night before off the stubble, so i was out so may as well see if more were moving about The first one gave me no warning at all it seemed to appear out of the ground, i glassed to my left and as i moved round to my right it was there, hunting in a deepish tractor rut, going away from me it was a choice that i didn't want to take, a quick whistle and it turned its head, just giving me a shot to its right side. The second came about 3 fields away from the first as i was driving back towards the farm, i pulled just through the entrance and started squeaking, a pair of eyes flashed momentarily, then they'd gone, nothing. I waited squeaking now and again, little whimpering squeaks, then silence for a few minutes. All the time scanning with the NV, i was about to give up until i saw this Fox coming from the left pretty quick too. That was that. both dropped on the spot. 22.250 Tikka M55 53 grn Vmax x 36 varget No burgers from those 2 either before you ask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
