It was the same last night , it literally pinged me and ran off . I am building a bit of a picture of what it’s doing now . Hopefully next visit will be successful. 2 Quote Link to post

Usually I rock up , get the rifle out , see the fox , wait for it to stop moving and shoot it . Occasionally things don’t work out like that , these are the memorable foxes . I’m kind of enjoying the challenge. I think if it was easy I’d soon get bored of it . I had a vixen last year that gave me the runaround, I was punching the air when I caught up with her . 2 Quote Link to post
