Jakes First Fox
« on: November 10, 2012, 11:24:49 AM »
Took my oldest son, Jake out for a couple sets last night.  Here he is with his first fox ever.  What I thought was unique is that this was a grey fox.  I have never shot a grey on this farm and I have been hunting it for about ten years.  It was a text book set up and Jake dropped it with the 22 hornet at roughly 60 yards.  By the way Ernie, Jake was using the Coyote TLR and I was using the Carnivore 5 and even though I didn't get a chance to shoot.  I really liked it.  Because of the wider field of coverage, I can id easier than any other light and I have seven different kinds!  Thanks.

Glad to see your boy got his first fox.
You two will remember that the rest of your lives.
I remember my first fox, it was with a trap. Even today when I go there I smile to my self.
That was over 40 + years ago.
I am happy you like the light. Now go out and get him a red fox.
Also let him shoot first even if you have a shot. :-)

Congratulations! That first fox is always awesome! My first was a grey that was called in and killed while using white light!
