    was in the gym this evening and got a call from a local farmer saying he is plagued with foxes. Told him id try get out for a quick look. Went out and called for 5 minutes until the first lad showed up and took a headshot at about 50 yards then his buddy was running on the side of a huge bank about 60 yards away and i took him on the run. Back to the van within 20 minutes! Successful evening, even landed me a new permission!

    Nice shooting.

    Fair play on the running shot. Something i'm sorely lacking in ability to do. Close up like that i'd be okay be on anything longer i'd struggle and sooner let it go or bark to stop him.

    Plus a new permission always leads to more permissions.

    Cheers man. Wouldn't normally go for them id bark to stop too but it was the safest shot I could have taken and knowing the area is good for close quarters shooting i had the scope set to x4 so he was perfect size in the crosshairs when I pulled the trigger

    Good shooting, had a runner last week and tried squeaking/barking but he wouldn't stop. He did have a rabbit in his gob so maybe he wasnt stopping for anything.

    you did however forget to include how you benchpressed ALL the weights and then went and shot the foxes!
