Ratchermans triple

[FOXHUNTER 5,021]

Yesterday afternoon saw us travelling to my ground again for a spot of foxing. On the way there we spotted a fox sitting out in a cut grass field at 3pm sunning himself . I turned the car round but he had vanished I thought I would see if he was there with the lamp later.

 

We lamped one spot and the foxes just werent playing ball , we were seeing them but no shots offered .

 

I climbed over a dry stone wall in the darkness and took a couple of steps forward only to disappear 3 foot down a drainage ditch I badly bruised my cocsics and was a bit shaken but we carried on !!!

 

Next we tried another spot where the farmer had just cut some grass fields that day on the edge of the hill and I was sure foxes would be hunting here

 

1st flick of the lamp revealed a fox mousing in the fresh cut grass , Ratch shot this one off my shoulder at approx 30 yards

 

We saw a few more but the shot didnt present itself again then on the way back to the car I spied another fox. Ratch once again shot this one off my shoulder at about 50 yards

 

I then drove to the field where we had seen the fox in the afternoon and as I flicked on the lamp there he was He took off though running , but he eventually stopped and Ratch took him with a good shot at 190 yards

 

So that was Ratch with his hatrick A happy foxer travelling home !!!

 

Another good night mate ...................
