Not a fox to be seen last night , just loads of Roe and hares.
Got a call this morning from a farmer who's son is losing hens , he has contacted the keeper who hasn't bothered his arse so we are going tonight for 6pm.
So no pressure to get a fox on new ground that is keepered.
Fingers crossed

MDT Field stock, I really like it. Bought it from Topscots off here, they are not expensive new, good bang for bucks Ben...
Managed to serve divorce papers on the Hubby of the pair last night, considering the strength of the half gale & gusts, I gave me a pat on the back!, the truck was rocking like a rowing boat, & keeping hold of the rifle all the time as I was feared of it tipping over 
, Back again tonight for his Missus, Exit wound..

So the forecast for last night was dry. Left the house and indeed it was dry...walked up the lane and onto my neighbours ground and it ****ed down and was blowing a gale...so headed home and pretty well as I got back to the house the rain stopped....headed out across my other neighbours ground which was like a bog...so decided to call it a night. Looked through the thermal and there was a fox 300 yards away. It obligingly headed through into our bottom field and then straight towards me and through the hedge into the field I was in. Quick squeak to stop it and down he went to an 80 yard chest shot.

Well great result last night. Met farmer and had a good bit craic , told us a fox had been coming in the barn and taking hens. He said the keeper was useless and never went foxing even though he had asked for help with this problem.
Anyway we got set up out the back of the barn and had a dog fox with no teeth on the ground within a couple of minutes which was heading to said barn .
Farmer rang as heard shot and was well impressed.
We continued and got set up on the 2nd stand and had another toothless dog fox within a minute , mate shot this one at 252 yds
Did call in a 3rd fox but it hung up and no shot presented itself.
Great piece of ground and farmer has said you are welcome to come back anytime , bollocks to the useless keeper

Scared more like ... and with good reasonStill never heard a single fox bark up North ...sure they are all mute
