Facebook bullshiite foxing.

The Facebook groups are typical of social media on a whole, full of absolute tosh and dreamers. You've got the "faces" who run these pages surrounded by every brown nosing boot licker on the planet and not one of them is worthy of the title foxer..!!

They rock up in all the gear, climb the five bar gate, set the rifle up on a tripod, switch on the caller, spot with the thermal, shoot with the NV, and back home in time for Love Island, foxing my arse..!!!

Having said that though moving on to your other point, technology as come on leaps and bounds and I do believe the 400 yard shots are achievable given the right conditions and that's the point, absolutely every possible aspect as to be perfect. I've been foxing a long time and I can count on both my hands the amount of times I've had those condition, so it just goes to show these people are just playing at it, and you'll only ever see what they want you too..!!
You coming over to watch love island later ?
 
Somehow I'm in a couple of groups on faceache on fox shooting lots of guys using thermal, drones, night vision etc. Now I'll say I don't have a clue about any of these things I'm a lamp and rifle kind of guy but the ranges some of these guys are reporting foxes shot at is worrying latest over 400 yards is that possible with the new thermal, drones etc. Seems a long bloody way at night.
It's not safe nor humane not skilful even if it were true :)
For me the skill is calling renard in imho?
 
Personally my thoughts are it’s all lovely fodder for the anti shooting brigade - some shooting people never seem to look at the bigger picture- the more ammo antis can get the easier it is to create a rush against any sporting activities

we seem to be aiding our own demise. :doh:
 
Again, depends on if you can do it reliably. If you can see clearly, know the land and your drops it isn't really any different to shooting in daylight. Whilst I haven't taken shots that far in the dark (300 tops) the only limiting factor I have is my night vision doesnt give me the clarity to get that far out otherwise I probably would if I had to.
Hi Hendrix it's the fact the thermal, drones can identify a fox at those ranges that gets me I've a decent range finder but to range something at those distances at night I find dam near impossible. I'd say something on the groups on faceache but I'd just get abuse an blocked and I quite like reading the bull****.
