Thedeerman Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 I was just browsing for some boar hunting on the continent and spotted something that I found interesting. There was a company showing off how many medal heads they had taken over the years and one category was Red Fox. The largest being 28.03 CIC points Has anyone ever had a fox skull measured in the UK? I never knew it was even a thing you could do?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evo Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 never had it done, but cant see the point in shooting animals for medals, its no wonder shooting has a bad name when people pay all sums of money to kill a beast only to stick its head on a wall and gloat to anyone who walks through their door, its a bit like the version of " my dads bigger than your dad " but for grownups instead of kids, everything I shoot is shot for a reason, its either pest control or for food for the table, mind you I,ve not eaten a fox and I,m not about to start,certainly shot a few though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My cash will pay wages and provide resources to improve the welfare of the beasts left, Tell me how is that wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cromwell7 Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Evo? So do you disagree with people paying to shoot pheasant, or do you disagree with people who pay for days to shoot pigeon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
