walshie 2,804 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 I think foxes are getting bigger year by year. A few years ago 15lb was the norm, but now 20lbers are quite common. I shot a 20lb vixen this year. (I know the topic was about lurchers though) Quote Link to post

bulljack 480 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Yep they're big fellas alright. How the hell do they get down holes meant for normal foxes? Must be a tight fit. the biggest fox i ever dug was in one of the smallest holes, we taught the dog was markin a rabbit at first, you would be suprised what they can get up. 2 Quote Link to post
