Dougy Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 After a long wait (weeks) eventualy got this vixen at just about 150yards. I have had miffy and deadeye Ive after some foxes that have been taking Mr farmers kids chickens and ginea fowl, and craping on the silage bales which then are usless as the cattle wont touch due to the smell and being contaminated with you know what.They have been very shy indeed any sign of a lamp and there off like a rocket. i had to resort to baiting with rabbits and left over from the sunday roast for weeks if not months. any way usual time about 22.15 they are about. It wasnt the one that we had seen last friday when myself and miffy were out that was a huge dark one like an Alsation. But this Vixen was having a sniff around the baited area when it recieved a Nosler 55gn being pushed by 36.5 grains of H380. The pudding without the custard :blink: well chuffed gets the heart beating. Got a text from my Bro who lives next to the field "Did you get it" ? then Mr farmer same question. rabbits were from another permision 5 minutes away with the HMR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
