moog5050 16247 Report post Posted January 6 (edited) Ended seeing 5 more sets of eyes but only one shot at a running fox at 100yds that was a miss. Wind and a knoll in the field hurt us. Lots of fun though. Edited January 6 by moog5050 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fantastic evening ! Thanks for the invite again, my friend. It's late so I'll have to do inventory on my gear when I get up.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk We hunted from like 8 until 11:30. 3 different sets and properties. There is one more I am 99% sure we could have scored on but closest neighbors have a dog and we would be set up 200yds away. Wasn’t sure if the call would cause their dog to go nuts in the house. Left it for a daytime set. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Almost an hour there and yes, 4 of the five came in after shooting at the first. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TreeGuy 5092 Report post Posted January 6 Great bullet for that caliber, keep us posted. Sent from my SM-G965U using TapatalkAgree. The 53gr / .223 put a hurt to the dog last night. He vanished after shot. Dead before he hit the ground and not even a twitch. I've found that bullet to be the best, if your after fur, ribcage. You want a dead dog, shoulders.

Biz-R-OWorld 15678 Report post Posted January 6 Biz you hunt yotes? We need to meet up then Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk I haven’t in years. I used to go at night 10pm-2am at Lockwood (DEP) Land in Carmel. No full moon, I’d go shotgun and dad had big spotlight flashlight. Full moon, he’d have rifle and I’d have shotgun. I have an old fox pro spitfire e caller and a mojo critter decoy. It’s much tougher around here during the day I think. In Arizona in daylight I called in grey fox in a few sets.

Belo 5503 Report post Posted January 8 so what do you guys do with the dead yotes? I feel like this is the only real thing that stops me from going out into the woods at 10pm lol.
