Hi every one, on the foxes in this one because this certain farm will be lambing in the next month, i am using a Sako 243 topped with a Pulsar C50 and PBiR Laser.
I have never seen that many foxes walk up to the same spot and meet the same fate!! What an excellent video today! loved the black and white of you, your rifle and the night sky behind. You are a true professional behind that trigger!
Like the way you don't celebrate having to do your predator control, the fox numbers need controlling and you do it quietly and respectfully. Well done.
I like your setup Simon. Thank you for your thoughtfulness when setting up a shot. I have seen too many hunters shooting from the hip, so to say. Without thinking about their total surroundings. Truly enjoyable to watch you.
Well done Simon ! And to have them group up in the same spot just proves you know your animals. More than one lamb was saved tonight. Good shooting for the rest of your season. Pets for Jack . Thad.
Nice one Simon. Don't forget thanks to the farmer who has respected responsible shooting too. Without such people us shooters would have nowt to shoot.
That farmer is no doubt indebted to you for this night's work. Good to see you get that 243 out, it is what i use here to hunt. I have a Browning Lever Rifle in .243 that I bought new in 1983. I do love my old 243!
Great video Simon and excellent marksmanship and great respect for the fox there is no doubt that you saved the farmer from losing lambs. Cheers brother
Another great video Simon, keep up the good work 👏. Everyone knows you don't get pleasure from shooting these foxes, but it's a job well done. Imagine the farmers' nightmare if you didn't do this fox controlling.
Excellent nights work. You looked a touch stiff getting up out of the chair 😂😂 perhaps laying on the ground all those years getting to the bones.😁. Top stuff Simon always look forward to your videos. Phil.
I've been thinking about combining a chair and tripod for awhile now. Standing for hours gets tedious. Lying seems hard on the neck. Did get a backpack chair recently. You look comfy in the camp chair.. Beautiful video as per usual. Thanks.
Hunting red foxes here in Norway too, but it's been a long time between each, the last one was two weeks ago 7.1 kilos, hunting with bait such as food scraps and fish as well as sound. Anyway, a pleasure to follow your page here.
Amazing! four charlie's all on the same spot - fantastic shooting and show's you really know your stuff. I agree, I never got a kick from the kill but it is necessary work.
Nice ethical shooting. We live in central Texas and use to raise goats and cattle. Had more trouble with coyotes but a few troublesome foxes. Had many a hunt with .223 / 556 and for longer shots, 308. Due to many years of drought, high feed prices, and reaching retirement age, we finally sold off all our livestock. Now I leave the critters be, (except the hogs) and enjoy watching and listening to them sing. Cheers.
As always Simon Good shooting and thanks for pointing out the importance of only taking A shot If it's 100% safe and If you wait a safe shot will present itself in time. and four In the bag shows you don't have to rush things well done mate
I’m in Western Australia so the shooting is very different and we do have some of the most restrictive firearms legislation in the world. Anyway, I’ve moved away from night vision to thermal. I use nv for close shooting of bunnies, all less than 100m using a 17hmr and a Pard nv008. Works beautifully. I’m now using a new pulsar xp35 thermion 2 pro on my Sako 243. A beautiful match. I think it is made in heaven, the foxes may not think so. Have not missed a fox yet with it. Shooting out to 200m.love my bog pod tripod. Much better than sticks. Don’t shoot from a seat, always stand when shooting. Sit on a seat sometimes when doing some calling. Enjoy your shooting.
What a fantastic result Simon well done mate. To go out and shoot 4 from the same position is amazing, I'm sure the farmer was well pleased with that result 👍
Good job , the ranch I hunt on just had another calf kill on Wednesday . Will be out again this morning looking for the calf killers !….. Stay well and strong my friend !
Hey Simon, are you piling them up these days ? 😂 What a result, the farmer must be more than happy with you. Keep up the good work so to see you have plenty of work to do seeing these numers in one night. Cheers mate 💪🏻
Brilliant Simon, thank you. I notice in the row of vids on the right of my screen, there is one from you 10 months ago - 'Crow Control Just before the Lambing Season' and I thought another year and everything starts-over again.
I say if you have no respect for what ever you are shooting, you should not be shooting , but your self Simon you show great respect, and you know the land you shoot over .and it's good to see them coming to the caller, and great shots a great video untill the next video take care good friend 😀
Well done pard top job like you I am not so keen on shooting lots but sometimes we have to, fact is if we don't the farmers will find someone that will, give your Jack a fuss for me pard
Hey buddy how ya doing ? Yes it is sad to have to cull the foxes . You and I know it’s very important to keep them in check . Great shooting pal take it easy and pat the pup for me . Stay healthy until next time !
A good steward of the land you are, Simon, we're only human my friend. When I would take an animal I learned to give thanks and say a prayer over the animal. The older I got the harder on me it was but like these foxes and coyotes, they have no natural predators and left unchecked their numbers would go through the roof in turn play hell on farmers livestock and increased numbers of foxes would even lead to starvation and disease and that is nothing anybody would want to witness, it's very bad. Anywho Simon, EXCELLENT shooting my friend! You were stacking up foxes like cordwood Simon😄. Well the farmer will be pleased. Take Care and God Bless my brother 🙏 Jay.👍👍
Excellent video again, fantastic to see and emphasise the safe shooting and backstop necessity, foxes are quiet now on my patch, only had to shoot 2 so far this year and I’ll leave them now as I hate the idea of orphaned cubs, I know it’s a couple of weeks off but won’t take that chance. All the best.
that's it, i'm getting myself a chair. nice shooting. I'm from Australia, where they're non native predators smashing our natives. the more i see die, the better. I am still amazed at their hunting abilities. that vixen call sounded more like a distress call to me. we've got the kits out with mums at the moment, so time to get out again and clean them up.
I have never seen that many foxes walk up to the same spot and meet the same fate!! What an excellent video today! loved the black and white of you, your rifle and the night sky behind. You are a true professional behind that trigger!
Maybe they were all tracking the Vixen on heat...if she was..
@@misterlewgee8874 yup I would bet your right.
Like the way you don't celebrate having to do your predator control, the fox numbers need controlling and you do it quietly and respectfully. Well done.
Ye cheers mate, i do to be fare i i respect them so much and understand they are only being foxes which is a shame really..
I like your setup Simon. Thank you for your thoughtfulness when setting up a shot. I have seen too many hunters shooting from the hip, so to say. Without thinking about their total surroundings. Truly enjoyable to watch you.
Ye thanks Randy
Well done Simon ! And to have them group up in the same spot just proves you know your animals. More than one lamb was saved tonight. Good shooting for the rest of your season. Pets for Jack . Thad.
Thank you Thad.
Great result for the farmer Simon! Nice to see a proper country sportsman with a good respect and joy to watch as well as cull where needed 👍🏻
Thanks 👍
Nice one Simon. Don't forget thanks to the farmer who has respected responsible shooting too. Without such people us shooters would have nowt to shoot.
Too right pal.
That farmer is no doubt indebted to you for this night's work. Good to see you get that 243 out, it is what i use here to hunt. I have a Browning Lever Rifle in .243 that I bought new in 1983. I do love my old 243!
Ye cheers Jeff
Incredible patience Simon. The farmer can sleep well tonight.
Absolutely
Nice shooting Simon, farmer must be breathing easier again..nice to see the healthy respect you have for your quarry as always.. 👍🏽

You are a handy bloke to have around lambing Simon. Good to see you using night vision to film yourself- not the white light to give yourself away !
Thanks Dave
