    Foxing Friday

    Went out lamping foxes on Friday night. It is mating time at this time of year in Ireland, so some of the foxes were in pairs. We saw 7 altogether, with most of them being lamp shy.

    With snow, hail & a biting wind throughout the night I managed to bag this lovely dog fox, taken at approx 200 yards with 55gr sako ballistic tips. Gun is a howa 1500 .223.

    Nice. Do they respond to a whistle?

    Been calling a few in here in Western Australia using a button whistle, its bloody good fun outwitting the sly old fox!

    I call them in using my hand. I create a injured rabbit noise with my mouth & hand, normally does the trick.
