Underdog Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Cut grass on dark is always worth a try. The wind had dropped so I used my cheap electronic caller while I hid behind a round bale. 20 mins later one shows up, I thought it was a cub as I watched through the scope but turns out I was wrong, it was a good sized heavy dog fox. 109 paces straight down.
