Title: Interesting morning
Post by: Jack Whitmire Jr on November 08, 2009, 07:06:00 PM
Sasturday was  the first day of Fox season . I had just got down out of my stand on another deerless morning , while packing up my gear I saw a fox cross the ridge about 70 yards out . I licked the back of my hand and started squeaking like a mouse , I continued this on and off for about 5-10 minutes . I saw a flash of red go behind a tree , I stood and drew my bow in one fluid motion . This gal was trotting towars me at 14 yards when I released an arrow and watched her run over the hill.

Nice fox, nice shot, and very quick thinking. Very good hunting when you can outsmart a wily red fox!

Well done!

Good shot!  Those are quick and small targets.

I think he will make a great back quiver , even though I don't use a back quiver I will use it to hang arrows in the house.

That is really a pretty vixen, Jack.  The one I saw yesterday was kinda ratty.  With all our coyotes here, foxes are scarce so they get a pass from me.  I'll take any shot a coyote will give me, tho.

Nice fox. Foxes are a real rare sighting in here in IL.  We used to see them a lot, guess the coyotes have taken over.
