Zero ok no fox in sight

[Sausagedog 7,381]

Well flaming Nora Ben! Your bad karma has rubbed off on me!

To lazy to take a rifle I take a shotgun and torch.

Visit a place several miles away and call a fox in. Comes in perfect, I lit it up and whilst broadside fire 36g of #2 shot at it.

Nothing! I don't know what happened at all!

What I do know is that now I have got to go back tomorrow!

To my eternal shame I have missed this fox twice now. It won't ever come to me ever ever again.

The only good thing about tonight is that I could hear a fallow buck grunting not far away. Just need that maize off.

Thanks Ben

Don't bloody start that off again!

This was somewhere else. Several miles away from my few roe.

So I went back and looked for an injured fox with the dog.

I found the wad.

Then Jess found hair right by where I found the pattern of shot in the mossy grass.

The hair when balled had a ginger colure and smells of fox ( or maybe brut!).

On reflection the fast trotting fox, although side on, I think I shot behind it and got tail hair for my amateurs cock up of a shot.

We scoured the area for over an hour but my dog never found anything. I gave her free reign to go look. She could smell the line the fox came in on and the route it took after the shot but that was all.

I've gone and educated this one good and proper now .

There, I've fessed up.
