Doesn’t the Fox get the game?…or so I’ve heard.

Always loved to watch Fox. I'd rather watch them than shoot them. They were so plentiful when growing up on the farm that they used to put on big fox drives. Coyotes have really reduced the number of them here.

Fox kits are so much fun to watch. Lucky you Rick!

And so, to Garry's point, I put a couple old lead goose loads in the HE Super Fox, went out the front door and snuck around the corner of the garage, I caught it with the right barrel as it was crossing the back stone wall. Flipped head over heels and never moved, boy did that poor thing stink. we had a three footed one around for a couple years, he had a beautiful coat and we would see him hunting field mice in the weedy areas around here, the lack of a foot didn't seem to slow him down I posted this picture of him back then

Nice pic Rick. We had a three legged doe here for a few years and it never slowed her down.
