FOX SHOOTING ON A VERY COLD JANUARY NIGHT.

Foxing on a Freezing cold night, just to get the job done. Well I've said it before, if you offer to control the Predators for Farmers, it's an all year long mission. Tonight, I'm out after the one Predator that's been spotted by an Eagle eyed farmer.

A really nice bit of foxing , sometimes it's best to leave them for another night 🦊🦊🦊👍

[@predatorprotectionuk]

Hi Chris , Well that’s number 2 I’ve left to live another day this week! If they clear off and don’t cause a problem, I don’t mind leaving them alone.

As another fellow said, cracking video, David. Of course, it was cold enough for things to be cracking. It's not just the farmer who appreciates your efforts; so do we. Thank you for that. Jim

[@predatorprotectionuk]

Cheers Jim, Thanks for your support chum , it’s really worthwhile doing the videos knowing that they’re appreciated👍👍

[@tikkafoxer]

Hello HG, Thank you very much, you’re right, my Covid Hide is brilliant where it is overlooking that field, that seems to be the main route for our red friends. ATB David

[@keithhaynes8079]

Well done 3 big ones out of the way, at least the lambs will be safe this year.

[@predatorprotectionuk]

Thanks Keith , too right, those sheep are due to go inside for cover in the next day or so🤞🏼

[@tikkafoxer]

A verry good result especially considering the cold, cheers mate, well done 💪🏻

[@predatorprotectionuk]

Thanks Bert, Our red friend has been back each day at the squirrel feeder this week, so last night I shot two rabbits and I’ll be using them for bait tonight, and will have something with a bigger sting tonight in our hide🤞🏼🤞🏼👍

[@johnallen8618]

Very good old chap, I've got a old sheep, to do the exactly the same, got to control them pesky Charlie's 😁

[@predatorprotectionuk]

Good luck with that matey👍

[@sydbrown2655]

Excellent shooting a good nights work.

[@predatorprotectionuk]

I need a little calor gas heater in my shed if you know where I can find one👍

[@davidr4310]

great night shooting, well done 👍

[@predatorprotectionuk]

Hi David, Cheers matey, thanks for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed the content👍

[@anthonywallace8534]

Fantastic shot made me jump when you fired😊

[@predatorprotectionuk]

The Fox wasn’t too impressed either Anthony😁 The microphone on the scope is poor, the best audio comes from the radio mic I wear , I’m going to use that in future as the other scope mic is far too sensitive and overdrives the audio making it fuzzy. It’s just another thing I have to remember to turn on, in the sometimes short notice Mr & Mrs. Fox often give🥴 Thanks for watching.👍

[@misterlewgee8874]

Well made Well shot. 240 yards etc must have been tempting. Remind me...what cartridge? (243, saw in description ✔️) You've got me wondering how to put a caller up on a pole now.... Thanks. Looking forward to next video already.

[@predatorprotectionuk]

Hello matey, I’m now using the home loads that my mate Dan produces. They’re 75 grain Hornady VMax. The pole is a useful tool, foxes are like deer, they don’t look up for danger😁👍

[@bertcremers3134]

Looking forward to it !😁

[@ezrabrook3993]

🎯💯👍🏻✌🏻 yeah buddy!

[@predatorprotectionuk]

Thanks matey, have a great day🫵👍

[@studay1007]

New to the channel, great footage. Can I ask what setup you use please?

[@predatorprotectionuk]

Hello Stu, Welcome , and great to have you join me on my shoots. My main fox and deer rifle is a .243 Tikka T3 lite/stainless The mod on that is a Stalon. The scopes I use now are all made by HikMicro, I’ve a Stellar, Alpex scopes and a Gryphon LRF spotter together with a Lynx LH15, on the odd day I take along a spare set of eyes. I’ve a Lithgow Arms .17hmr and .22Lr, A Smith&Wesson 15-22 M4 semi auto. And 2 FAC air rifles FX Maverick FX Wildcat both .22 and my latest project is the AirArms TX200 HC. I only use Warne QD return to zero mounts on the scopes as I use the same scopes on all rifles and save the settings on each gun profile. If I’ve missed anything out, let me know 👍 And thanks for watching😁
