Critter night! Fox and the squirrel.
« on: November 24, 2012, 10:47:00 AM »
No deer the other night but sometimes success is measured not by achieving what you are after.

   

     

The squirrel was fooling around under my tree and asking for it then about 30 minutes later the fox came hunting down the fence row. I squeaked with my lips and he stopped to investigate a moment too long. At 15 yards the grizzly ripped through him and he took off on a mad dash. At about 40 yards I watched him do a barrel roll and it was over.

Congrats.  I've always wanted to take a fox with my bow, but have never had the chance.

Very nice.  I don't hardly ever see a gray fox out and about in the daylight.

Nice shooting Tom, and a nice Gray Fox at that. At least you should be on target when the big BUCK arrive with that kind of shooting.(LOL)
