    Good shooting mate I do the same for farmers in the lambing season in England and I am 77 years old, I will look forward to next video take care.

    Use to do this in the 70s around the Bathurst, Eugrowra, Parkes & Mudgee area. Geezers, I still remember it was so super freezing with those frosty cold, zero wind evenings sometimes. Skin would stick to bare metal and numb fingers fumbling with the cartridges. Your modern tech astounds me and leaves in awe. Your ability using it is impressive. My .222 with a 4x20 back in the day with driver side mounted spotlight seems so primitive in comparison, but oh, so satisfying taking out foxes - it wasn't easy, smart animals. The memory of the farmer's gratitude though, with the most positive emotion still warms me to this day. Their beer always seemed to taste the best. Stumbled over your utube by accident and got mesmerized, it did an old fella proud. Best to you and feral animal control will always be a priority for the Australian rural scene. It's so important to keep their numbers down! Thanks...

      @RJMHuntingAustralia  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Keith.
      We used to do the same back in the day mate. .410 & 22 for the bunnines and 22-250 for when you got some eyeshine from a fox.
      Technology has definitely changed the game.
      Glad you're enjoying the channel mate.
      Merry Xmas 👊

      Oh yes, technology advancement is mind blowing. Last rifle I had was a Tikka 22/250 with whatever scope I used (forget now) but rabbits at 250yds, not a problem. I recall well the Sportco Omark 7.62 was a major upgrade from the Enfield .303s with the big bore tgt scene I enjoyed for years since school, Bathurst and then became a range officer at Orange Rifle Club. That life is well and truly gone now sadly. Best to you, K

    • @maculatus67
      @maculatus67 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Foxes are neither vile nor despicable. They are just foxes being foxes trying to survive. However, they are not native and should be eliminated if at all possible.

    • @LuvBorderCollies
      @LuvBorderCollies ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Foxes are great buddies compared to the rotten coyotes. Yotes get braver if they have 2 or more of them eyeballing prey, whether its baby ducks, calves or a hunter who's sitting on the ground (vulnerable to encirclement by a pack of 5 or more yotes). Only good coyote is a dead one. SOB's lured my favorite Border Collie pup away from the farmyard and killed him.
      Death to all yotes. No quarter given.

    Watched a video on feral cats in Australia where they were talking to some cat hunters. One of them was talking about people getting upset and asking why they don’t catch and release. Usually that means giving them a check up, spaying them, and releasing them back into the area. In response to the cats indiscriminately killing wildlife one hunter said, “Why would you do that? They’re not trying to fu@& ‘em!”

      In a 2019 study the Australian National University found feral cats kill approx 740 native animals EACH per year. That equates to approx 1.5 billion animals killed by Australia’s population of feral cats each year ! Yep that’s 1.5 BILLION. That is why we need to get rid of them, keep up the good work Rod 👍

    Those bloody things are everywhere. I remember shooting 30 one night then going back and shooting another 40 the next night after a roo shooter had been through a couple of nights before. Only about 10-15 klms from Roxby Downs in SA. Shot hundreds of Foxes and Cats over a couple of months. Good on you for doing what you do mate.

    That's some excellent shooting! Almost all the hits looked like instant, humane dispatches.
    BTW, I like how you addressed the non-understanding ones out there. Animals such as feral cats, foxes, rabbits, and pigeons can all become pests, and cause a lot of damage to crops and livestock. Folks need to A. grow up and B. remember that. I'm also glad you did the equipment run-down. Very enjoyable vid. Thanks for sharing!

    Love your videos. Ex farmer so really hate foxes and crows. They do so much damage to lambs. What would be nice is a tally board with kills, as you get them, with silhouettes, maybe in the corner of screen.. something like we used to see on WW2 fighter planes. Keep it up
