remmy1100 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 last night saw me and pa david (aka fair weather shooter)l heading to golf course after the downpours had stopped few rabbits about ,but David had just shot a rabbit when we heard fox cubs or foxes scraping nearby but couldn't pinpoint were we scanned with NV but nothing saw rabbits ahead so guessed not that way so we backtracked around small wood nothing again tried torches but just rabbits ,so we walked on then i scanned with yellow light and bingo eyes at 150 yards give it few squeaks and started towards us we kept few gentle squeaks going and it kept on coming so we both dropped onto bi pods we only had the .22lr,s so knew we needed to get it close to be sure of clean kill we watched it through our photons as it bounded in to our squeaks till at 50 yards we both fired, both shots hit into chest and dropped without a flicker on inspection was a cub less vixen ,now the funny thing is weve shot mostly vixens on this course and always at hole 10 must be Cameron foxes,and yes course wants them gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WelshMike Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 My camo frock is already packed :lol: Just bought a slab of cartridges .......hope I need them Fingers crossed mate. Trying to show restraint and leave some foxes for you as a start. Hopefully we can have a crack at the crows or if there is a miracle maybe some pigeons.
