130 yds ...that's a really long walk33 and 34 last night.
Quick wander around the first farm but towards the end I could hear a vixen calling like mad on the next farm across. Set the caller up and we had a call off for 5 mins until she came steaming down the field, over the lane and into the field I was in. She dropped about 50 yards to a bib shot. This is why we use electronic callers

Onto the next farm and spotted one across the small valley. Dropped it about 130 yards but its a long walk to get it ...so I didnt bother for the sake of a photo and got the farmer to do it this morning instead. Nice to be back out after a couple of weeks off the foxes.
Someone off here who I know well was very rude about me not going to get the fox and implied Im a lazy ...something rude...well I suppose the truth hurts sometimes

Or sent the butler

The butler was sacked...I asked for Caviar but it wasnt up to my standard so he had to go ...hence why I didnt go and get the fox 
130 yard shot but 1/2 mile walk because of the gateways...so sod off130 yds ...that's a really long walk
I must be going a bit hazy in my dotage, I already need to remove gloves to shoot pistol well, So why was I insisting to myself I can shoot a rifle wearing gloves?
When you feck up a 38 yard shot you know you need to ditch the gloves.

I'm ok with fingerless with a rifle or at least the trigger finger cut.
I recently got some good air pistols.
The hw40 fits my hand perfectly but the Artemis grips are too big and it's easy for me to pull a shot to the left as the likelihood is of the trigger finger to act on the right side of the blade....
To close for me...I always seem to miss the close ones. I imagine shooting through the fence wont have helped
When we did some fencing at home we went for 9" mesh on the basis it avoids the sheep pulling tags out but its much easier to shoot through
Shot was pulled, had the scope on it for at least a minute.
Only 2 types of people who shoot...those who miss and those who lie.
Ive taken to taking my right hand glove off to take the shot as I dont like shooting with gloves even the ones with the fold back trigger finger.

Beats sitting in the house .
Agreed. One of my mates youngest wanted to use a centerfire so set the gongs up last night and he had a few shots with the creed...fair play at 14 he was a tidy shot and enjoyed himself. Back out after fallow tonight ...but a specific buck who I have only seen once in velvet so doubt he will show...but I wont ever shoot him sat in the house

He would be well worth a 1/2 mile walk but only if I can get the truck within a sensible distance as he is a big old lad.Next time I ll go take a pic of the poxy fox just to keep you fussy tools happy
