My first was at 17 with a single 12g. It came waltzing towards me along a hedge and I tucked in and shot it at three yards.

Mine was with mcnab lowlander 12 bore. Probably 18 years old. I was member of a bobbery pack ran by fella named Phil Lloyd in the Conwy valley. Line of guns & then dogs would work cover, basically like a beating line = driven fox! I was 20yd behind some gorse and first fox bolted, gave him both using #3 shot. Was buzzing.

First rifle fox was with hmr browning t-bolt, early morning on some fresh silage.

Think mine would have been when I was 17, ferreting an old pit in the corner of a cover crop just after the season had finished, bolted by a very grumpy old hob
