Icotec GC350 on its way!

Post by Waldo »

Looks like I'm going fox hunting, got kinda tired of seeing everyone else nailing foxes on here so thought I should get onto it :shock:

I gave in to an urge to give one of those new fangled remote predator calls a try and ordered one of the icotec GC350 units, should be here next week so I'm itching to give it a try.

The young bloke will be home from uni for the mid year break for a week or two shortly so it'll be a good chance for quality time shooting some stuff, so it should get a good work out then :D

I'll post up some pics and first impressions when it gets here, hopefully to be shortly followed by photos of some dead foxes 8)

Cheers,
Waldo

Really looking forward to your report mate, fox scalps are actually worth something this side of the sludge that gets called a river :roll:

Cheers Guy's, it should be fun.

I spent a fair bit of my youth strolling around with a tin whistle, a mini fox terrier and the Browning A5 (woohoo Super X magnum BB's) or the Sako .17Rem. It was fun times and looking forward to whacking a few once again for some light relief.

Rest easy though I'm not giving up deer hunting, my dogs would never forgive me if I did that :lol:

Cheers,
Waldo

Well, my caller arrived today. Gotta be happy with the service, certainly prompt 8)

Had a quick unboxing and whacked some batteries in and gave the unit a trot on the lounge room floor, all good there. I just need to get it out and give it a trot, mm better start planning something :hunting:

Ive thought a heap of times that a caller would be good, with a speaker mounted on the bull bar, for calling in foxes of a night time, just drive around the paddocks with it blasting away, while dragging a dead critter along for an extra attractor. :D Give it a go and let me know how that works mate, I may just get on and do it myself.
