Interesting stand

Jake and I went out today calling/scouting.

 

Somehow, I have a ability to see a fox area, call it and kill it.

 

We were drivin down the road and I saw one of these areas so we went to callin. About 3 minutes in, right after I had switched sounds I hear Jake click off the safety of his .243 and I see a fox runnin across the rocks comin quick.

 

Jake holds off as we know he is coming hard. About 30 seconds later the fox steps out at about 10-15 yards. BB shot from the 12 guage and he goes down, but I had a feeling I hit him a little far back but he flops backwards and we think he is dead.

 

After a few giggles we get back to callin. I look to the right just in time to see one take off to the right.

 

When its time to go get the fox, it is still alive looking at me. I am only about 7 yards away comtemplating what to do. I dont want to shoot it with the shotgun as it will obliterate the fox, I think about using my .40 but before I can do that the fox gets up and hauls arse. I did not see that coming so my reaction time was a little slow, but I managed to get one shot off before he bailed off the cliff. I did not think I hit him and expected to see him hobblin off, but he was was layin at the bottom of the cliff.

 

I looked up, and at about 70-80 yards was another fox. I put the bead high and shot. The fox jumped up and ran off. Jake fired a shot at him but missed. We went over to try and find it to no avail

 

Saw 10 deer, 4 bucks. Thats a total of 15 deer so far, 9 bucks... Ill take that ratio!

Yeah he was coming in a hurry. Too bad I brought the rifle (without sticks ). If I would have had my scattergun I'd have plugged my first fox. Alas, I remain foxless. Saw some bucks though, Nov 5th can't get here soon enough!
