Couple of recent expeditions

Post by dashooter »

Had the pleasure of getting out with the Ausvarmint fox whisperer a few weeks back for an arvo/evening session.
Unfortunately we only managed to whisper in one fox during the day which made a good escape.
The evenings spotlighting was more fruitful with a number of foxes taken both under the normal spotty as well as thermal. Andrew loved watching the ‘tv’ and seeing the action, although it made it hard to find some of them as neither of us really had a great idea of the exact locations. ImageImage

The other video is from a walk around a local block last night with the FX .25 cal and thermal scope (Infiray Rico RL42).
I’m really loving this thing.
Still haven’t managed a fox yet, they just don’t want to play. Image

Hope you enjoy.

Cheers,

Lol. They weren’t very responsive Barry. Only had one come in to the whistle.
I’m useless with the tenterfield style myself, I end up with a hand full of spit. Image
